Synopsis of each scene thanks to a anonymous regular over at Television Without Pity.
CLIP ONE
Against a barren central Asian landscape, an American special action team moves in for a "snatch" operation on Osama bin Laden. But back in Washington, DC, Clinton's National Security Advisor cannot bring himself to make the final call.
CLIP TWO
The Americans and their local allies are stunned to find themselves countermanded by the Clinton Administration at the moment of decision. Frustrated and alone in a hostile land, they contemplate a needless failure as their Afghan allies reproach them. Back in Washington, DC, Bill Clinton becomes less preoccupied with American security, and more preoccupied with his impending impeachment. Out in east Africa, al Qaeda plots its next move.
CLIP THREE
In Nairobi, Kenya, horrific slaughter ensues as al Qaeda attacks the American embassy. Clinton's DCI receives a teary remonstrance from the only sane person in the entire American intelligence hierarchy in those days.
CLIP FOUR
A team of Americans and Kenyans tracks a reluctant jihadi through a Nairobi slum. A chase ensues, and the fugitive is caught. "American devil!" he yells in Arabic, but one assumes real devils wouldn't take prisoners. A threatening crowd of slum-dwellers gathers, toting machetes, but the Americans escape. Back in DC, bureaucrats and the NSA discuss how the Lewinsky investigation is hampering the President's efforts. Madeleine Albright argues against taking on the Taliban on purely legalistic grounds. William Cohen opines that going to war is an "overreaction." The clown carnival plans its infamously ineffectual cruise-missile strikes on Afghanistan and the Sudan. The Sudanese are predictably irate.
CLIP FIVE
The Sudanese express their anger at America by trashing their own neighborhoods. Ayman al-Zawahiri calls ABC News for a friendly chat. Massoud's Northern Alliance suffers a Taliban offensive in response to the American strikes. Massoud himself is piqued: why did the Americans ever trust the perfidious Pakistanis whose forewarning saved bin Laden? Thank God we've learned that lesson. George Tenet, Sandy Berger and Madeleine Albright exchange harsh words.
CLIP SIX
Khalid Sheikh Muhammed: champion offroader! And hideous villain, too -- the man has it all. We see an al Qaeda training camp in operation. It's like the Boy Scouts, but with automatic weapons, none of the Christian overtones, and twice the recreational sodomy. KSM reveals he has a secret plan in mind. He calls it "The Planes Operation." It involves....planes. As dusk falls, the jihadis machine-gun a projection screen upon which Clinton's visage is speaking, thereby eliminating the sole source of entertainment in Waziristan, and disrespecting their own MVP. KSM and al-Zawahiri exchange tender words. Much desert scenery and ululating ensues.
The Nairobi bombing didn't happen, ya hear me? IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. (yeah, sarcasm)
Approximate times of the 6 clips on various websites that are said to be what Clinton wanted removed:
1 - 3:28 mm:ss
2 - 3:32 mm:ss
3 - 4:28 mm:ss
4 - 7:30 mm:ss
5 - 7:01 mm:ss
6 - 5:54 mm:ss
Total - approx - 31:53 mm:ss
ABC website is showing the time has been reduced from 3 hours to 2.5 hours tonight.
Co-inky-dink?
Watched the scenes last night on the traditional values website . HOWEVER, it doesn't seem to work this afternoon . Clinton again ???
It doesn't sound worth watching...
I just printed this out and will be viewing with this info in mind...and an eye on my watch.
Nope. Not gonna waste my time.
Hey does that mean the US Ranger did not get dragged through the streets after Black Hawk Down???
ABC just caved.
They're such cowards.
Scr_w them. I'm not watching.
COWARDS.
Looks like Clinton still has VETO Power.
I am guessing that ABC has issues of cease and desist to anyone showing the clips.
Why? Because I thought the Clintonistas might take them away from us.
Sadly, I was right to be so cautious.
IT WAS A TEST, DICTATOR, CLINTON...AND ONCE AGAIN, YOU FAILED MISERABLY.

It's no wonder the Clintonistas have thrown everything at ABC/Disney, in a desperate effort to have the miniseries cancelled. Documents exactly what we've been following over the years on FR. Brave agents on the ground in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Dedicated people at Langley and the J. Edgar Hoover building, working around the clock to capture or kill Bin Laden, Ramzi Yusef et al. And all their efforts derailed by Clinton appointees like Berger and Allbright- selfishly putting their own careers (and covering their asses) before protecting the... |

30 minutes cut and a last-minute Nightline segment is taking it's place at 10:30p ET.
Speaking of Blackhawk Down, that movie did a pretty good job of separating the Clinton White house from responsibility.
Why the last-minute Nightline segment at 10:30pm?
This is so incredibly stupid.
ABC can go suck eggs.
Hope all will take the time to watch the 6 part video 'out takes'---powerful stuff---to quote a cliche: "truth to power."
Click on the link and view the clips.
If we knew the times of in the movie these clips occurred, we would check them as the movie is playing.
I posted the lengths in minutes:seconds, but I don't have any idea when the six clips occurred during the movie.
