Zsa Zsa Gabor posted:(although I don't entirely understand the connection they make between WikiLeaks and the Arab Spring revolts, which the narrator mentions briefly in a matter of fact tone). I heard that in Tunisia and elsewhere people were afraid to revolt because their leaders convinced them the United States would intervene to maintain the status quo. The leaked diplomatic cables showed the US being skeptical of the regimes in place. Haerc posted:Anyone know of any docs similar to Century of the Self? I've already watched all of Adam Curtis' other docs. Have you seen his blog? http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/adamcurtis/ Sadly I don't know of anything on par with Century of the Self - but http://thoughtmaybe.com/ has lots of stuff in a similar vein.

Baron Bifford posted:I nearly fell off my chair. Do you mean this in a good way or a bad way? Obama indirectly mentioned 'The Power of Nightmares' narrative in his last presser - starting that the group that planned 9/11 has more or less been defeated but that al qaeda groups have 'metastasized'.
