Both episodes of Inside 9-11 on tonight

[SeaBiscuit]

Ditto, watched it twice, checked to reaffirm AB reference, and it was definitly was. not by name of course but it was there.

[ThreePuttinDude]

Thats the feeling I came in with last night.
I soon found out how good this piece is.

I don't think it could have been done any better.
Thats just my opinion tho...

Bin Laden set up networks in over 32 cities here in the US

[SeaBiscuit]

oops, AB=AD

[mware]

Showing the Soviets VietNam.

[mware]

Now showing Bin Ladens night of the long knives. Where he took out his opponents.

[toomanygrasshoppers]

I think the thing that stuck with me the most after watching last nights show was the fact that there were/are several terror attacks "in the works". Bin Laden was almost like a broker. People would bring ideas to him and he would go with them or not. I don't know if this is how he is working now. I wouldn't be surprised if there were several "events" in the works right now that just need to be "tweeked" or need the go signal.

Curious to see the 'other side' tonight.
How much time will be given to the political response to the actual event as opposed to the portrayal to the lack of response to the political events that lead up to the actual attack.
How will the producers portray the minutes/hours/days of reaction time to the years of buildup before hand?

[toomanygrasshoppers]

I'm trying to view this without using a political prism. It's hard to do, but I think that I will get more out of it if I do that.

[mware]

FBI failed to establish that a mosque in NYC was a front for terrorist.

[SeaBiscuit]

The FBI takes a pretty good beating in this program.

[mware]

Bin Laden sent 20K to defend the murderer of Kahanna.

Commie Kunsler defended him and got him off.

[ThreePuttinDude]

Wasn't Kunsler, Gotti's lawyer??

[mware]

Wherever the chips fall my friend. Time for the truth.

[mware]

I think that was Ron Kuby, Curtis Sliwas partner at WABC radio.

BTW Kuby worked with Kunsler.

[mware]

Now talking about the one eyed sheik who wore the Santa Claus hat.

[ThreePuttinDude]

Thats right

Apparently Part 2 will also discuss the still unresolved anthrax attacks. This is the second hour of Part 2 (or Hour 4 of the entire documentary) and thus will be on 10-11 ET.

The main source material for the anthrax part is an article in Science magazine titled "Anthrax Powder - State of the Art?". This article severely criticizes the FBI and accuses them of ignoring military labs analysis of the powder. Thus there could be an imminent threat of weaponized anthrax today and the FBI are still asleep.

The article can be viewed here http://anthrax2001.blogspot.com by clicking on one of the first links.

Ironic,, the day of the first attack it was snowing and it looked like the ash that fell during the second attack.

[Bahbah]

This article severely criticizes the FBI and accuses them of ignoring military labs analysis of the powder.

They seemed to just want to settle on Hatfill. Kind of like tagging Richard Jewel for the Olympic Park bombing. Are they lazy? What is the deal with the FBI?
