Vaara points to this excellent op-ed piece in the LA Times: US mainstream journalism appears to have finally noticed last year's excellent BBC documentary 'The Power Of Nightmares' which points out just how the existence of scatttered Islamic terrorist groups has been conflated and inflated by the neocons on both sides of the Atlantic into a fake threat to our very existence, in order to prop up their power.
