a disc called obsession

Published Oct. 6, 2008

I recieved a disc this weekend call Obsession, I don't normally watch things unsolicited, but my MIL recieved one also, we should not be on the same mailing list.  I watched it, was really surprised by what I saw, I scanned it before watching, mine was clean, scanned the puter when done, it was still clean.  That was my disc, can't say the same for others.  This documentary talked about how the terrorists are infiltrating the world without our knowledge, was quite interesting to me.  Has anyone else seen this?

fearmongering

If we let a TINY fraction of the people in this great big world make us so afraid that we'll alter our entire lives and live in fear, then they've already won, and didn't even have to draw a weapon or plant a bomb to do it.

You know you're right. We should do nothing. They probably won't blow up any more buildings or cut any more throats. And all that talk by muslims about killing those who won't convert that's probably the malt liquor talking. It's those darn Republicans we should be wary of. Liberals would be laughable if the stakes weren't so high.

"Isn't that what terrorists want after all?...now they have an unwitting ally in people like these producing fear-mongering propaganda on their behalf."

I agree 100%.

It's sad.

Mentor... I've seen the film (twice). I've researched this issue quite a bit so most of what I saw in the video was a rehash for me. Based on what I knew before I saw it, yes, its factual.

Watch it for yourself.

"He replied" When someone, especially an organized group, tells you they are going to kill you, you'd better believe they are going to try."

Smorg, why do you feel the need to defend this violent religion. Even if Mr Shoebat is a total fraud, hasn't there been enough destruction in the world by Muslims. They have no problem admitting to most of their savagry. It amazes me the causes you and many liberals feel the need to take on.

"mentor, would it not make sense to take what you have learned, and instead of living in fear, take the necessary actions to prevent/defend from those actions?"

What actions specifically would you take? Do you feel the film is a completely factual and accurate portrayal of the situation?

mentor, would it not make sense to take what you have learned, and instead of living in fear, take the necessary actions to prevent/defend from those actions? It seens logical to me that if I know a certain action is being taken against me, I should do what I needed to to prevent that action from taking place. Letting it happen and then deal with it, is the Katrina effect. Oh it won't be that bad and them blame someone else, for not heeding the warnings.

I am suspicious any time an organization wants you to watch something so badly they send a free copy to your home. This is propaganda designed to keep fears alive of an imminent jihadist uprising and a possible imminent attack on the West by adherents of radical Islam. If we buy into these ideas (that legions of radical jihadists are plotting our doom) we will all needlessly live in fear, IMO. No matter what we do, no one can guarantee we won't be attacked again at some point, but if it happens we'll deal with it, and respond appropriately. To hell with wringing our hands and living in fear. Isn't that what terrorists want after all?...now they have an unwitting ally in people like these producing fear-mongering propaganda on their behalf.

A holocaust camp surviver was once asked: "What is the biggest lesson you've learned from all of this?"

He replied" When someone, especially an organized group, tells you they are going to kill you, you'd better believe they are going to try."

Haven't seen this video yet but I think I get the gist of it from what has been blogged here and before...my take is, don't discount folks that hate you...they do.
