"Should we be worried about the threat from organised terrorism or is it simply a phantom menace being used to stop society from falling apart?

In the past our politicians offered us dreams of a better world. Now they promise to protect us from nightmares.

The most frightening of these is the threat of an international terror network. But just as the dreams were not true, neither are these nightmares.

In a new series, the Power of Nightmares explores how the idea that we are threatened by a hidden and organised terrorist network is an illusion.

It is a myth that has spread unquestioned through politics, the security services and the international media."

Forget about "Fahrenheit 9-11"! This is the best documentary you will see this year and it's also one of the most important films made after 9/11! It has all the facts and it will scare the shit out of you. This is the BBC and not Michael Moore or some other lunatic making the opposition in the US look like a bunch of fools.

Story in der "Frankfurter Rundschau".
