The Power of Nightmares (download) explains how governments create fear in people to control them and spend billions on weapons and the military. In summary, while the former ''supposed'' enemy and threat was communism, the since ''created'' threat is terrorism (or for some: radical militant Islam). The reality is more that these threats are created on purpose and exaggerated to be able to maintain a powerful military and reduce the freedom of people and control them. The mainstream media is a collaborator and this is how the majority of people are manipulated and controlled.

The Century of Self (download) explains why humans have become more and more selfish and driven by consumerism. The majority of the population in the world is passified doing anything against injustice by fear of loosing what they have.

The documentary Why We Fight  investigates who profits from the wars to spread "democracy and freedom". The evolution from military industrial complex to include the government and think-tanks such as the New American Century is explained. The so called Operation Iraqi Freedom (March2003) was in my opinion a totally unnecessary war as negotiations were going on and the Iraqi leadership was cooperating. With little research it was easy to determine that the real reason for the war was purely for US interests and projection of power. The initial operation name was Operation Iraqi Liberation (OIL) but this gave away part of the purpose so the name was changed. Of course it was not surprising to see the British next to the new rulers of the World. It was the British after all who drew the borders of the Middle-East when the Ottoman Empire collapsed.
