I've always found the way security/terrorism issues are portrayed in movies or the news, especially in the U.S. to be really "cute".
The manicheism of it all made me believe that either every news anchor really has no clue about how it works, or that they're exceptionally good actors.
I also found that many times, events tend to be seen as discrete things that live in a vacuum rather than rooted to some previous event (isn't it interesting that these documents are resurfacing during a transition period where the U.S. is turning its back to Saudi Arabia and warming it up with Iran? Small pieces of content and info injected here and there).
An interesting piece if you have a few minutes to spare:
