The Power of Media?

October 28, 2004 9:03 AM

The Power of Nightmares sets out to claim that the Islamists and the neocons are, in reality, soul mates. Fact or fiction? Check out this series from the BBC using this handy Bit Torrent!

Your "torrent" link no worky for me. Gives an error.

This is the second part of the three part series biffa. Next week's looks like the powerful one though, and so close to polling day... coincidence?

I'd love to see the series. Anyone got a link to a NON-AVI torrent? Preferably mpg/mov, but I'll even take WMV.

From the other thread, torrents to all three as mpgs, here.

Part Two torrent. (67 MB Real Media.)

It's a great programme by the way. Details how the Jihadists eventually turned their violence inward, and how the NeoCons targetted Clinton, after losing the Russians as their fabricated hate figure.

Some great interviews and quite a few moments of laughing out load in incredulity.

Anything as good as the ones I have at 600mb each?

Two different-sized versions of eps 1&2 have been posted to Usenet so far. The one in the link is the bigger one at 450mb in size compressed.
