The BBC’s new documentary, “The Power of Nightmares”, presents evidence that al Qaeda does not exist, and was created by United States Central Intelligence Agents. Among the evidence presented, they call into question the testimony of Jamal al-Fadl, point to staged footage of bin Laden’s ‘foot-troops’, and the faked Tora Bora headquarters that Donald Rumsfeld insisted was one of many.
There are militarized Islamic terrorists, but they aren’t a unified or monolithic front.

A portion from the BBC’s documentary ‘The Power of Nightmares’. You can watch the entire three hours here:
This film explores the origins in the 1940s and 50s of Islamic Fundamentalism in the Middle East, and Neoconservatism in America, parallels between these movements, and their effect on the world today. From the introduction to Part 1:
“Both [the Islamists and Neoconservatives] were idealists who were born out of the failure of the liberal dream to build a better world. And both had a very similar explanation for what caused that failure. These two groups have changed the world, but not in the way that either intended. Together, they created today’s nightmare vision of a secret, organized evil that threatens the world. A fantasy that politicians then found restored their power and authority in a disillusioned age. And those with the darkest fears became the most powerful. ” The Power of Nightmares, Baby It’s Cold Outside.
