memri.org is invaluable. As far as I know it's the only one out there which performs that service -- a straight translation of Arabic news and commentary. You can find all kinds of interesting stuff there.

Good post!
However, I find "the Power of Nightmares" deplorable.....what a farce! They fall victim to the very thing they preach against.....distorting the news and history for their own political statements!
-------------------- “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

I did watch the first two. Comparing the ravings of cutthroat terrorists (somehow it is bad to mow your lawn, or dance) to national defense by our elected representatives is quite a stretch.
Like the fucking Arabs can critique our society to begin with.......whats the saying....oh......take the board out of your eye before taking the splinter out of mine!!!!!!!

Honestly i think that video is trying to show how the modern terrorist group was formed. Mainly from the Muslim Brotherhood or Ikwhan in arabic. Formed in the early 20's and called the Suez Workers Movement. Most terrorist organizations have spread out of these organizations. Their aim is to fight Jihad and establish Tawhid(Unity) and create public Dawa (charity)
