I’m hearing all kinds of disturbing, though predictable, stories about a Clintonista offensive against “The Path to 9/11,” an ABC documentary written and produced by Cyrus Nowrasteh ("Into the West"), and directed by David Cunningham ("To End All Wars"). I haven’t seen it yet (although I hope to this weekend), but it is already drawing rave reviews from people who have (the piece is reviewed at FrontPage, here).
Apparently, the documentary recounts the bureaucratic bungling and lack of action against al Qaeda that was pervasive prior to the September 11 atrocities. It is by no means, I understand, pro-Bush. It is, instead, an effort to present history accurately. This evidently has many former Clinton officials and apologists in their default kill-the-messenger mode. Great pressure is being brought to bear on ABC and Disney to reopen the editorial process at this late stage (the documentary is supposed to air on September 10-11) so that the years 1993-2001 may remain forever airbrushed.
Will they succeed? This bears watching.
I've read there are a lot of "original" films of this original "Path to 9/11", and if it's changed HBO or someone else may show the whole thing, as it is originally taped.
I'm going to watch it, because I read, originally, it is the first REAL pro American mini series in over 10 years.
And why should the screaming media not back the bent one? They have said squat about the spsecial counsel papers that have been sealed for 50 years. I guess it made some people who read them physically sick.
Way to go EK, me and my whole family have hit 'em hard.
I have no doubt that they have heard the conservative voice with what I have seen hear on FR.
I just got the new People in the mail and they have a full page ad about "The Path to 9/11"....hope that means it's going to show!
Dear P-40,if you haven't,you REALLY should read Ann Coulter's"Godless"!She chronicles the way that The Rats(Ben Veniste,etc.,)did EVERYTHING they could to turn The 9/11 Commission into a"Bash Bush/Clinton Coverup"!!
Dear P-40,have you read Ann Coulter's"Godless"?You should inasmuch as she sheds a freat deal of light on what went on with The 9/11 Commission,and how BenVeniste,Gorelick,erc.,were covering up for The Clinton Administration's(ElRushbo used to refer to it as"A Criminal Enterprise")rwfusal to deal properly with TERRORISM(much less accept Osama on a silver platter)!Gorelick created "The Wall"which prevented Intel/Law Enforcement from sharing info on the theory that this "sharing"would compromise evidence gathering!!In other words,they didn't care about PREVENTION.They wanted to make certain that these A**HOLES got a"fair trial"!!!!!!!!!
