I give credit to CNN for showing the tower jumpers. They are the first network to do it in a long time.

I give them no credit. They are sitting on video thousands of times more graphic than mere tower jumpers, but have steadfastly refused to air one second of it from the moment it was recorded. Why? Because we the Little People can't handle it. They, the Journalists, have spoken.

(I call them "mere" tower jumpers because, if you did not know the circumstances of the video before watching it, your only thought would be, "Why are these people jumping out of a burning building?" Only via the knowledge that it is video of the WTC on 9/11 does it become bone-chilling. The true story of the carnage that took place that day, however - the photos and videos that would enrage you beyond belief the moment you saw it, regardless of the circumstances - well, CNN isn't ever going to allow you to see that. After all, it might make you mad enough to demand revenge against those that perpetrated the crime ... and to do that wouldn't be very liberal and peace-loving of CNN, now would it?)

Well said! I think we should see all the footage from that day. Without seeing the horror, we know not our enemy!! Without knowing our enemy, we become complacent, and it WILL happen again.
