More thinking out-loud & other fragments:

After watching Adam Curtis documentary "THE POWER OF NIGHTMARES"

As the director Adam Curtis explains about the series:

"The programmes did not say that there was no threat. What they argued was that although there is a serious threat of terrorism from some radical Islamists, the nightmare vision of a uniquely powerful hidden organisation waiting to strike our societies is an illusion.

The question the series tried to answer was why contemporary politicians and other elites, like the media, want you to feel frightened - to behave and feel like a hedgehog trapped on a motorway - when the reality and the scale of the threat is actually very different. "(Adam Curtis)

In the series Adam Curtis points out that of all the so called "sleeper cells" discovered in the US none have been clearly shown as a real threat to the nation. The evidence used against these individuals is questionable . For instance concerning one of these cells the main piece of evidence gathered was a video taken while these individuals were visiting Disney World. The video is just a typical home video except it was mades by Muslim Americans. All Muslims in America are treated as terrorist suspects which I don't find surprising given White Christian Americas prejudices against anyone who is not a Christian .

The Power of Nightmares: The Rise of the Politics of Fear

& the BBC THE Power of Nightmares Re-awakened
april 26,2005

NOTE: The American Networks so far have refused to air the documentary. This is not surprising since according to The Homeland Security Bill even to air this film might constitute giving aid & comfort to the enemy that is the terrorists. Who according to Bush have an inexaustable supply of money, material & expert personnel to bring down Western Civilization.

And now just thinking outloud dropping phrases into the word blender-

So here we go again & what is there to be said the WAR is still on in Iraq as each day the numbers of dead Iraqi civilians increases -


Anyway see you later,
GORD
