Security Versus Liberty: The Other War/The Brotherhood
"Security Versus Liberty: The Other War" Following 9/11, the U.S. government adopted some controversial new policies to help prevent terrorism at home, including eavesdropping on Americans' phone calls, secret demands for records under the Patriot Act and the use of FBI sting operations. The Bush administration contends these tactics have helped save American lives, but critics say they have taken a toll on our liberties. The film explores this urgent national debate by talking with both critics and advocates of the new policies and telling the compelling real-life stories of people whose lives have been directly affected.
"The Brotherhood" The Muslim Brotherhood is dedicated to the spread of a fundamental form of Islam throughout the world – but is it also supporting terrorists? Award-winning Newsweek journalists Mark Hosenball and Michael Isikoff investigate a movement that preaches peaceful co-existence while offering inspiration for jihadi groups. They meet a top Brotherhood leader condemned by President Bush for financing al Qaeda and Hamas, a sympathizer living freely in Germany though believed to have played a significant role in 9/11 and a Brotherhood supporter who met with U.S. presidents while plotting an assassination.
