Obsession, Radical Islam's War Against the West

In this thread http://www.professionalsoldiers.com/...t=1033&page=45 I made mention of the movie Obsession.

Just watched the 1 hour preview DVD this weekend, if I had to use only one word to describe it I'd choose...chilling.

I believe every American should view it. That said, I'd like to lend it out to anyone that is interested and the only condition is after everyone is finished I'd like to return it to the person who originally sent it to me.

If you're interested, post here (and PM your address) to get the ball rolling.

From what I have heard there is no American company willing to distribute the DVD. My copy should be here this week. It was delayed for some reason.

After reading these posts, I did a search and found the following website and ordered the movie. I hope we're talking about the same movie. Anyway, for what it's worth. www.obsessionthemovie.com

Disregard. I believe I've seen some of the clips in this movie in an A&E or History documentary.

For those interested in getting the movie off of MegaUpload or Rapidshare, PM me for the addresses.

I don't care much for this film, FWIW.

Just finished the DVD.

Although some may think this is propaganda, I think the film does a superb job of demonizing radical Islam with thier own words and actions.

They do show a connection with Hitlers propaganda machine and that of radical Islam that is almsot exactly the same - especially when you consider that the same posters used against Jews in 1938 were resurrected in 1995 in Egypt, Lebanon and Palestine.

They are manufacturing a culture of death in the name of Allah. They are teachng young children in their schools, not how to live for Allah, but to kill for Allah.

Roycroft I'm mailing it to Cincinnatus tomorrow, you can PM him with your address.

dennisw, yes it is the same. I thought rather than folks here having to spend the money we can just share...

Just as a point of interest, Fox News is now talking about this documentary.

L,

Is there a longer version to Obsession than the 1 hour DVD we bought?

C...yes there is, but I think that is not for sale just yet. This one is the director's cuts.
