The television series 24 has long been a controversial show. A show where the lines are blurred between those who want to stop terrorism and those who are the terrorists. Jack Bauer, the protagonist of the show and anti-hero will do anything to achieve his objectives. That includes the torture of innocent people, breaking the law and much more. He seems to be above the law. This show is a constant reminder of the threat of terrorism. The show is loosely based on a famous Navy Seal.

Readers of the AIM Report are accustomed to learning of huge distortions or omissions by the media. This time, the under-reported story deals with the possible end of America, as we know it.
