Thanks Ferre for finding this important work...

I read this and wanted to think about it for awhile.... Confused

I believe this article to be one of the most informative articles I've read (couldn't watch the video...real player doesn't work on my computer, for some reason...) lately about the spector of intentional, governmental fear-mongering, or building and exaggerating the threat of a non existant Al Qaeda network bent on destroying America...

To be sure there are fanatical groups out there whose intent is world chaos but the idea of a well organized and financed organization out to destroy the US is very possibly just plain wrong!

The gov't wants us to believe it because that belief serves their interest...to keep its citizens fearful, ignorant and in the dark as to what is or is not true...

To remain educated and informed means that we have to keep open minds as to what is really happening by studying, watching and reading news services that aren't US government controlled or influenced...pretty hard to do! Thank God for the internet!

I urge everyone to take the time to watch this 3 part video or read the transcript.

We are living in scary and uncertain times...we must continually seek to know the truth...

Joe

For Sure, Joe.

It's become real clear that we can't count on the truth from our own biased news sources. The internet is truly a blessing in that department.

Stay informed.

I downloaded all three parts but won't have a chance to watch them until next week as I am doing first aid all weekend.
