This BBC doc that follows the source of the Neo Cons and Islam extremists. The DVD from netflix only had one episode on it. It&#8217;s only an hour. You can fit more than an hour on a DVD. Anyhow I watched the other 2 videos on google video. This pretty much reinforced a lot of ideas that I already had, as in the shit we&#8217;re presented is generally not the real case and we&#8217;re constantly operating in crisis mode. Russia! Iraq! Al Queda! SARS! Iraq! Pig Disease! &#8230; yeah ok settle down. As long as we&#8217;re stuck in freak out mode, there&#8217;s no time to wait. <\/p>\n<p>The Life and Times of Allen Ginsberg.
