Honest Reporting's film on radical Islam, Obsession, is available in full on Google Video. Just watching it now. Looks like a must-see. [via Atlas]
Update: I watched it. Do NOT miss it.

3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...

Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."

I agree. Obsession is worthy of informing your friends who may not be inclined to read the news/commentaries regarding the middle east and Islamofascism.
Many folks have one hour and 17 minutes to watch a documentary.
Sol;
Very powerful piece. Thanks for the link. Michael Moore could take documentary lessions from these folks.
HonestReporting CANNOT be happy with this being distributed on the web donation-free. Unless, that is, they deem it too important that it must be freely distributed right now.
I've been wondering about that. I have noticed they have been getting a lot of media attention lately (I saw them a couple of nights in a row on Hannity & Colmes, for instance) and maybe they just decided that the time was right to let it out (Nasrallah figures prominently). I wouldn't be surprised to see the video disapper, nor would I blame them.
On another issue, I wonder how effective this film would be to the uninformed. Is it effective, or, because this truth is so huge, would it be too easily brushed aside as I feared their other film, Relentless, could have been.
Thanks for the link! I have not seen it yet, but I have downloaded the video in order to view later on.

Superb documentary; in every respect the quality is deserving of superlatives. It may be interesting to see what Hollywood (the "Academy," harrumph, harrumph) does with this during next year's Oscars. If Michael Moore is worth a nomination, "Obsession" is worth all the studios and real estate in Hollywood.
Oh my god.... I knew all this, but the dense compilation makes the impact much greater.
THX for bringing this piece to my attention. Talking about ptopaganda: there are horrible skits of islamic propaganda on googleVideo :-(((
Excellent documentary. Here in Europe the movie "Farenheit 911" has been broadcasted on television. I wish they do it with "obsession" too but if they do, you have thousands of cars in flames in France (8000 cars the previous time). Our politicians become more and more politically correct. But more and more people here dare to set the american flag on their balcony the 11th of september. It's not too late but it's time to counter the islamofashists. God bless America and the common values of freedom that we share together.
I have heard that Obsessionthemovie is a must see Dvd, I have tried to go to obsessionthemovie.com but they do not have the movie for sale. does anyone have the movie on dvd that I can get a copy. Please help me with this I need to see it.
