September 11th Video Project
Free Republic ^ | Eddie Arent

Posted on 03/27/2004 9:40:15 AM PST by PRSOrlando

Hello all,

Let me introduce you to what I am doing. In my history class, we were assigned a project to do a movie about an event in American history. Now, my teacher is one of these left-wing whackos who bashes the President each time he gets a chance to, yet he calls himself a "centrist" (you've got to love these people). Anyway, instead of coming up with some stupid life in the 60s video which a group wanted me to be a part of, I decided to do an individual "short documentary" (7-8 minutes, so it's not really a real documentary, just a summery) on the events of September 11th and beyond.

I don't want to hold back. So far, I have footage of the WTC attacks, footage of the Pentagon, and a clip where President Bush is giving a speech. As well, I have footage/pictures of these "anti-war" people and some of their anti-American messages. A fellow student even sent me a clip of a man jumping out of a window of the WTC and suggested that I use that to show people what kind of hell these victims were going through.

What I'm asking from you all is if you can contribute in any way. Be it a video clip, pictures, a quote from our national leaders, or any other advice. I really want to hit home with this and wake people up to what happened that day because some of these kids (and adults) have truly forgotten what happened that day and what is at stake today.

This video is for educational purposes only. No money is going to be made off it. Thus, I believe fair use issue of Copywrite laws are at use. Either way, every source I use will be documented in the film credits.

Thank you for your time.

You need to find somewhere UBL declaring war on us, then something about clinton saying this is a law enforcement matter....then that clip of UBL laughing about the towers coming down! Wonder if Fox would help you out.

That cartoon above is the reality of the public response.

Old veterans like me, and most Freepers, wanted to re-enlist immediately and go and kill some terrorist and whoever was on his side.

And I am only 44.

Here is a huge FR archive of Sept 11 stuff, perhaps searching though it you might find something.

When I start reading it, I cry.

I believe it was Kobi Towers, the Cole, several African embassies, and the World Trade center circa 1992, that were targets of Osama Bin Laden's terrorism, for each of which he got away scott free.

What you may want to do is point out that we gave peace a pretty fair shake in this business. After 09/11, and Osama's declaration of war, we finally decided to put our foot down.

Note that Bill Clinton couldn't be bothered with any of this.

Your treach and Bill Clinton are both major jackasses.

Best of luck to you.

I am assuming you are a young person. I applaus such wisdom for your age.

... yet he calls himself a "centrist" ....

That sounds suspiciously like "I'm not a stripper; I'm an entertainer."
