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.

Thanks. Set my DVR to record the series.
Wow. That was stupid.
I did a double take when I saw the headline, thought for sure this show would never air again on American tv. Then I realized it was “Road” to 9/11, not “Path” to 9/11! I recorded Path to 9/11 when it aired back in 2006...still an amazing story. I don’t imagine the new “Road” version will be nearly as critical of the Clinton gang as the original “Path” version.
I’m expecting something not only sanitized of blame for the Clinton’s but Islam as well.
Disney quickly censored its production of Path to 9-11 shortly after it was released. That company is not our friend.

And the anti-American Left pulled it.
Really? Says who? Do you already know what the History Channel does and not say in their take concerning the “Rode to 911”, and you know how that compares to what you’ve learnedly studied about it, and you know they have no bias in it? Really?
Seems impossible to me, as I have never witnessed any actual history type of presentation on the History Channel where their Liberal/Left bias was not on display.
Care to dispute facts related to post’s 7 points, or are they too third-rail / complicated for you?
And how’s Langley this time of year?
You can’t possibly believe they will begin at the beginning.
It all begins with Jimmy (AKA “Bozo”) Carter stepping on his schwantz when Iranian “students” laid seige to the US Embassy in Tehran in the autumn of 1979. Which they did at the behest of the Soviets, because Moscow knew that Carter couldn’t fart and chew gum at the same time, so he would be too flummoxed with the predicament in Iran to respond to their military aggression in Afghanistan.
The Soviets only were emboldened to risk the invasion of Afghanistan by a conspicuously weak US president, and it was that invasion which gave rise to a Wahabist revolutionary by name of Usama bin Laden.
All 9/11 roads lead to a little peanut patch in Americus.
Watched the tail end of part 2,
Clinton Administration comes off as the gang that could not shoot straight.
11 shots at Bin Laden that the administration chose not to take largely due to not wanting to look bad.
