06.26 | The political fantasy that drives the war on terror

If you want to understand the psychology of the times, go to popular culture. There have been few television hits in recent years quite like the US action drama '24', which, with its trail of violence and terror, has gripped audiences in Britain and America. I confess straight away to being a bug-eyed '24' junkie. I have sat on the sofa mesmerised by every episode in every series. Friends and family know they phone at their peril while it's on.
