maggot_brain Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 For all those who want an alternative opinion on the 'War on Terror', I'd advise you to watch a TV series from a few years ago called, 'The Power Of Nightmares'. It rips apart most of the Neo-con / Blairite bollocks about the imagined enemy. You can get it off emule or if enough people are interested I can upload it to a torrent site.
maggot_brain Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 how big is the file ... ? Actually noticed it on TPB. It's 1.3GB there for all three episodes. My version is 2.1GB.
maggot_brain Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 Actually it's available for download on the Internet archive in a variety of file sizes... http://www.archive.org/details/ThePowerOfNightmares
maggot_brain Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 It's probably worth keeping. The torrent is available here: http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3505879/The.Power.Of.Nightmares.NTSC.DVD-R Mods: This is a legal torrent, the iso file is take from the Internet Archive, link is here: http://www.archive.org/details/ThePowerOfNightmaresDVD
sandtest Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 although I can't say about Western countries and danger faced by them from radical Islam, since after 9/11, even US didn't faced any terror attack... But, Same is not true for my country India....much before 9/11 we were fighting with terrorism and terror attacks killing hundreds....since this was happening in a "third world" country like India, nooone in the west seem to care for our constant appeals in UN that Kashmir Islamic militancy is killing innocent lives....only after 9/11, when suddenly Amreeka bahadur woke-up, Western countries and our own dhimmi media started drum beating about terror. Situation for India remains more or less same, we still experience every second month, a train, a bus, a market place being blasted away by Paki, Bengalistani supported and homegrown Isalmists such as SIMI. So yeah, for India the danger of Islamic terror WAS real, IS real and WILL REMAIN REAL unless we give up our Dhimmitude and start teaching these Islamists, the lesson in that very language which they are use to.... Our position, is diifferent than WEST with respect to Islamism....we are a country Invaded and pillaged by Islamic hordes and our history wiped out by Macualaylized Indians and Marxian historians and Islamic barbarity in India is brushed under carpet. US or Britain faced one 9/11 or London bombing, while we face this on daily basis... Btw..3 days back CRPF camp was attacked by terrorists and as expected one of the CRPF jawan belonging to ROP community was found well connected with terrorists and co-ordinated this attack. Why I am not suprised that the jawan who took the oath to protect the country, became a traitor overnight -- so that he can fulfill his Ummah ideology....:giggle:
chunky_lafanga Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 maggot_brain would you like to view some graphic images of Islam in action in Thailand? To give credit to US for creation of a monster is understandable but not completely fair. Terror of Islam pre-dates USA :finger: That docu is very biased. Similar to if Bush was talking about WMDs :D
CC1981 Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 That docu is very biased. How is it biassed ? Power of Nightmares is one of the BEST documentaries of investigative journalism I've seen and it is recognized as such in academia as well. PoN is not talking about all islamic fundamentalism- it is talking about Islamic fundamentalism in the present era. Islamic fundamentalism in the past centuries/millneia has revolved around national front- get a fundamentalist king in power/stroke the fundamentalism in the king and he'll take his army and go around whacking 'kaffirs' and 'infidels'. The concept of Islamic terrorism is very much a Qutb-USA-UK phenomenon, where they've successfully disassociated Islamism from the main political machinery and instead started the concept of sleeper cells, independent action, etc. So yes, USA is very much responsible for creation of Islamic terrorism.
Guest dada_rocks Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 IT is bullcrap not just biassed.. Taken from communazi islamist propaganda book basically..
CC1981 Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 IT is bullcrap not just biassed.. Taken from communazi islamist propaganda book basically.. Nothing more than hinduvta fanatic giving yet another baseless pronouncement on what you cannot refute. If you think its bullcrap- show us why, champ. Let me guess- you have not even seen Power of Nightmares yet concluded it is bullcrap. Maybe all the courses in scientific analysis/thought you missed out on and instead bribed your way through..afterall we all know that happens in Indian schools and colleges. Just like how you can so surely talk down about communism and socialism without even READING what the difference is or what their teachings are. As i say mate, read Das Capitals before you try to talk down what you know nothing of.
maggot_brain Posted January 6, 2008 Author Posted January 6, 2008 IT is bullcrap not just biassed.. Taken from communazi islamist propaganda book basically.. Well you obviously haven't seen it. It is anything BUT Islamist propaganda. Baseless claims yet again, and you claim I have no intelligence.
Guest dada_rocks Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 Ain't u little too thin upstars, I am talking about the method employed by those islamist communazi craps, the same method at work even here..
maggot_brain Posted January 6, 2008 Author Posted January 6, 2008 Ain't u little too thin upstars' date=' I am talking about the method employed by those islamist communazi craps, the same method at work even here..[/quote'] Have you seen the television series, 'The Power of Nightmares'. I'll take a leaf out of your book, 'YES or NO' will do.
Guest dada_rocks Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 Don't freaking change questions u need comprehension 101 asap..
CC1981 Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 Don't freaking change questions u need comprehension 101 asap.. Typical hinduvta tactic..can't answer questions posed to you. :haha::haha::haha::haha:
maggot_brain Posted January 6, 2008 Author Posted January 6, 2008 Don't freaking change questions u need comprehension 101 asap.. You claimed that the program in questions was Islamist influenced. I claimed to the contrary quite vociferously. In this light my question is reasonable. I repeat have you seen the television program, 'The Power of Nightmares'? Yes or no will do, BS can wait.
maggot_brain Posted January 6, 2008 Author Posted January 6, 2008 dada_rocks response reminds me of this. The interviewer is a famous newsreader/journalist called Jeremy Paxman. The politician is Michael Howard who was Home Secretary in the UK when the interview was filmed in 1997. BklT7Qy07Is
aussiefan Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 the looming tower by Lawrence Wright a very good read on origins of Al-Qaeda up to 9/11 also.....not quite bogeyman made out by jerks in washington......
CC1981 Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 So DR, have you watched 'The Power of Nightmares' ? yes or no would suffice.
maggot_brain Posted January 6, 2008 Author Posted January 6, 2008 Well then dada_rocks. You've been exposed as a dishonest, ill-informed bigot who when asked a straight question, cannot give an answer. To paraphrase Trotsky, 'Go to where you belong from now on, to the dustbin of ICF'. Have a nice day, ostrich!
