History has be written and re-written so many times that it has become increasingly difficult to put today’s politics into context. Throughout the West, but especially in America, we are fed a daily diet of fear every time we turn on our televisions or open a newspaper - although these fears are being fed to an ever more skeptical audience. The harsh realities of the American government’s lies about “the War on Terror” and Iraq War II have snuck in through the internet and through the very few objective and publicly owned media in the US.
THE POWER OF NIGHTMARES - PART 1
However, there are some histories that the US media - especially the mainstream private media - feel that the American people can’t handle. This BBC documentary series, The Power of Nightmares, is one of them. Although the creator, Adam Curtis, has tried countless times since 2004 to have this series aired on US television, he has been rejected every time. Curtis points out the scary obvious when he says that “something extraordinary has happened to American TV since September 11. A head of the leading networks who had better remain nameless said to me that there was no way they could show it. He said, ‘Who are you to say this?’ and then he added, ‘We would get slaughtered if we put this out’” (wikipedia.org).
THE POWER OF NIGHTMARES - PART 2
When our own history can’t be examined by our media, our media is no longer democratic. It is no longer a tool to inform us about our world so that we can make political decisions based on reality. As Curtis points out throughout “The Power of Nightmares,” we are making decisions based on fantasy. Check out this amazing documentary, and see how this fantasy has been constructed by both the neo-conservatives in the US and the fundamental Islamist groups in the Middle East. Stay informed and take away their power!
