Interesting BBC film concerning the parallel development of modern Islamic radicalism and Neo-conservatism. Details the rise of the latter movement and its masquerade as traditional conservatism to garner support and acquire power. This film also discusses the development of the current Arab political ideology and shows how both movements originated from the same basic philosophy: masses are more malleable when they are living in a constant state of fear.

  • I find it interesting that people with similar ideologies from different factions have more in common with eachother than they do with other members of their own factions. (i.e. Conservative muslims actually have a lot in common with conservative christians, or like this documentary states, the neo-conservatives share similarities with militant muslim groups).

  • crazy to see this unfold and make the connections to our current geo-political and socio economic situations.. to extinguish one "nightmare" we unleashed one and basically created another...

  • @chh5555 wasn't common practice by both the soviets and the americans to supply fighters in proxy wars? i don't think afghanistan would have been the first instance of major funding of a soviet enemy.

  • Was Michael Myers a radical Islamist?
