Does anybody get BBC2? If so, can you record this show for me?

The Power of Nightmates: The Making of a Terror Myth

This quote about sums up the series:

Much of the currently perceived threat from international terrorism, the series argues, "is a fantasy that has been exaggerated and distorted by politicians. It is a dark illusion that has spread unquestioned through governments around the world, the security services, and the international media." The series' explanation for this is even bolder: "In an age when all the grand ideas have lost credibility, fear of a phantom enemy is all the politicians have left to maintain their power."

Before you dismiss this series altogether, please read the article linked above first. Then argue.
