Road to 9/11 (Premiers tonight on the History Channel)
History Channel ^ | September 4, 2017

Posted on 09/04/2017 1:25:59 PM PDT by EveningStar

Special Premieres Mon Sept 4 at 9/8C

“Road to 9/11” provides, for the first time, a 360 degree overview of events that led to the attack. The comprehensive, dramatic narrative weaves together the complex global connections and webs that were developing over two decades. As the threat quietly grew, only a few people recognized it; most Americans were distracted by other issues on the home front.

Featuring more than 50 interviews, the story is told by the people who were there, some speaking on US television for the first time – the investigators and officials who understood and warned of the threat, but were unable to imagine the magnitude or foil the deadly plot conceived by Osama bin Laden and Khalid Sheik Mohammed.

Of course they won’t lay the blame where it really belongs. Bill Clinton.

I might tune in to WONDER what could possibly have led to this unforseeable attack? If there is any ideology that ties all the loose ends together????

Maybe the History channel will nail the two ideologies that killed so many of us. Islamic terrorism, and political correctness. A very deadly combo.

The Road to 9/11:

Main Road: eight years of Clinton’s Leftist political hand wringing and inaction while bin Laden and Co. bombed the WTC and attacked U.S. ships, emboldening them for the 9/11 disaster.

Side Road: Bush’s inattention to the imminent threat cause by his bone-headed predecessor.

Let me guess, this road travels through Guiltville, USA.

The only question is, how often does it stop there, and how long does it stay each time?

People lost in space on global matters, can’t fathom that there are U.S. and it’s allies interests in some of these regions.

So when we defend against threats, we’re the real bad guys to them.

Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama will undoubtedly be proud of this production.

Lets hope I’m wrong.

I used to watch “The History Channel” more than any other channel. All their shows were not totally accurate but mostly so.

Now it seems like all they have on are Pawn shops, Pickers, knife makers etc. I actually like all three in moderation but get tired of them eventually and now just can’t watch them.

B.J. Clinton allowed the 9/11 terrorists to train in the U.S. They were already identified by the CIA but Clinton wouldn’t allow them to inform the FBI.

I never did find out what happened after that “Amelia Earhart” fiasco.

How about where it really started with George H.W. Bush and Gulf War I.

If we’ve learned anything from past History channel’s handling of 911, then we know that Clinton’s role in this will be completely sanitized.

That may well be so, but it's no excuse for Clinton to ignore all the warnings and look the other way while this was all set up under his nose.

I don’t think so either, but I’d find it nice to be wrong on this.

We are involved in a boiling war, and the West particularly the Left have no idea what is truly going on.

Wonder if this History channel (puff) piece will cover (gloss over) problematic 9/11 topics like:
1. Gubermint Kid-glove treatment of Saudi Arabia, originating source and financier for most 9/11 airline “hijackers”, Bin-Laden, and Wahhabist terrorism ‘round the world...

2. Larry Silverstein’s decision to over insure the Twin Towers several months before the event...

3. 9/11 Commission report concealing 28 pages from public disclosure...

4. 2909 Architects and Structural Engineers who have trouble with the official NIST report, ie: WTC bldg #7 free fall collapse which just so happened to be announced 20 mins before it happened on a live BBC broadcast:

http://www.ae911truth.org/

5. The many Commercial and Military pilots who question the 911 Commission report and NIST findings:

http://pilotsfor911truth.org/core.html (read their accomplished career credentials)

6. The many Firefighters who question the official story:
http://ff911truthandunity.org/

7. Coincidence that Patriot Act domestic surveillance measure language pre-existed in earlier 1999 committee legislation and look where we are today...

https://www.congress.gov/bill/107th-congress/house-bill/3162

From chaos, to order.

Well, regardless of who did or didn't encourage it to happen, we definitely know WHO did it...

Agreed...

Still, we were not in the Middle-East in a significant way on 09/11/2001.

We weren’t for the first Trade Center bombing either.

This was an attack based on the belief we are the great Satan.
