The producers of the award-winning documentary Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West are making it available for free online viewing to mark the anniversary of the deadly Mumbai terrorist attacks.

The Mumbai terror attacks took the lives of 173 and injured more than 300 victims.  Mumbai, India is the largest city in the world in terms of population, with the city proper having a population of approximately 14 million inhabitants

"The brutal attacks in Mumbai were yet another instance of innocent individuals murdered at the hands of radical Islamic terrorists," stated Raphael Shore, producer of Obsession. "It is important to recognize that these incidents are not isolated. Rather, each attack is merely a new front in a global jihad being carried out by dangerous extremists that seek to destroy western freedoms and democracy."

"Our hearts go out to the loved ones of the Mumbai victims. It is important for individuals around the world to truly pause and consider the losses suffered in Mumbai, and understand the heinous motivations behind such vicious attacks," Shore added.

The free stream of Obsession is part of a grassroots initiative to mark the anniversary of the attacks and educate the public about the threats that radical Islam pose to the world at large and the United States in particular. Concerned citizens will have the opportunity to watch the film throughout the week, and learn more about a growing radical movement targeting western liberties and ideals.

Over 30 million have seen the groundbreaking film, a powerful and controversial educational tool that media pundits have coined a "must-see." Obsession was the winner of the best feature film award at the Liberty Film Festival.

OBSESSION: Radical Islam's War Against the West documents the call for world domination and global jihad made by Islamic leaders on a daily basis. The film features exclusive footage from Arabic TV, as well as interviews with former terrorists, and experts including Alan Dershowitz, Steve Emerson and Caroline Glick. The film outlines parallels between Chamberlain's strategy of appeasing Hitler prior to WWII, with the West's current attitude of appeasing Iran and radical Islamists.

The free online stream is available for a limited time at: http://www.radicalislam.org/Obsession

Bloggers and web site owners are invited to host the free stream on their blogs or web sites. To embed the stream visit: www.clearspring.com/widgets/4aace992ff38389f
