If you don't think you can, imagine what it must have been like for those who had to live it...then grow some guts, because your only job is to watch it on TV--in their honor.
Oh, and there's one more thing you can do from the comfort of your voting booth... When our President tells us he's trying to protect us from people who did this to the WTC towers and those inside....believe and support him and those in Congress who will help him continue to do so!
God Bless America (see tagline)
They were scheduled to follow some members of the NYFD on that day. It was a coincidence that the terrorist occured then, but the brothers/filmmakers rose to the occasion. A painful film to watch, but powerful.
AMEN!! I thought the show was well done. The dramatizations were not maudlin; they showed the fear, desparation and eventual sadness. The one interview I though was interesting was Victor's wife. She admitted she was angry with him for essentially giving up. She said she didn't think he realized just how much his family would miss him. That was the saddest thing, I think, because he had a chance to get out, and didn't, and Harry died because he decided to stay with him.
I felt sorry for the Chinese man who made the decision to leave Victor and Harry in the stairwell. He still felt guilty after all this time, but Victor's wife didn't think badly of him. She knew that he made the decision that was right for him, and he survived.
We also need to WAKE UP--that's 100% of us, not just some.
We need to start putting the blame in the right place.
We need to listen to TV news with filters. When they say, "It was another day of horrible tragedy in Baghdad, two soldiers died ____ and two soldiers died _____." We need to think that most probably seven or eight people died on our own State's freeways from being drunk, and those in Baghdad lost THEIR lives fighting for freedom and to make the World a better place!
And...
WE NEED TO GROW SOME "PERSPECTIVE" BRAIN CELLS! This will help us put our votes behind the RIGHT people, so we can take the gloves off and fight these IslamoJerks and WIN "HAND"ILY!
Can you tell I'm just fed up??? You're right!
The truth is that those who believed in conspiracies is because they are fearful about the truth of who we are up against and it is not the US government.
Uggg, I stayed up mto watch the rebroadcast and I had a lot fo trouble falling asleep after. Well done, to date I don't think anyone had captured the point of view of those trapped inside the WTC unitl now.
I've encountered two others in just the past month, and they both joined before I did.
As the anniversary approaches, more of them will probably come scuttling out of the woodwork...I have no patience for them anymore.
I did not even know that Discovery channel had this last night. I was just too plain tired after not being able to sleep the night before. I have read on its website that it will be replayed again next Saturday night at 9 PM.
Oh just for your information, the largest religion in the world is not Islam but Christianity, haivng over 2.0 billion members. The largest growth is happening in what is called the global south, of sub-saharia Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The only thing that Islam can claimed in its growth is the birthrates, but for every Muslim baby born after 9 months, there are many more Christian believers added over the course of that time. Just in Africa alone up to 6 million Muslims live a year to become Christians, the reason Christianity is a faith of life, Islam a faith of death.

i loathe koppel, no way in hell i'll watch anything he hosts about 9/11. he is very sly at inserting cutting remarks and slanted viewpoints.
I've been hearing about the cell phones on 93 could not have worked at 30,000 feet...Every group has conspiracy theorists, but the left are truly drug induced in their wide-eyed ramblings!
Doc,
Please go back and read my posting history.
I'm not a conspiracy nut.
I was simply posting the wtc.nist url for the report by the National Institute of Standards and Technology for the research behind why the steel failed, why the fire-proofing wasn't going to stand the airfuel impact and the truss supports were doomed by time seconds after the impact.
I don't subscribe to anything other than researched facts.
This was an exceptional show.
