One of the best documentaries about 9-11, starting with the 1993 WTC bombing and going up to 9-11, you will ever see.

The Clinton Administration hasn't gotten its hands on it, and won't. And now you can really see what happened when we missed Bin Laden in the 1990's, why the decisions made by the Clinton team weren't effective in getting or killing Bin Laden, how the Bush Administration (to it's discredit) made AQ a low priority upon the transition of the Oval Office between administrations, how the hijackers were trained, the chaos of 9-11, and everything else.

There are so many nuances and details in the story, from NSA wiretaps to arguments about collateral damage to CIA covert operations tracking these terrorists, that make it difficult to completely describe how adequate this documentary is.

Set aside 90 minutes and get yourselves up to speed about how and why 9-11 happened.

PS - The last 25 minutes or so are spent literally making the Bush Administration look like a bunch of incompetent morons, with segments noting that they still have been less than forthcoming about what kinds of things they were ordering on 9-11; like who gave the shootdown order, their desire to attack Iraq instead of Afghanistan, etc). In other words, this documentary spreads the blame around to all parties, and doesn't pull punches. That's why (I felt) it needs to be seen.

So watch with some hope, anti-BOOSHies. He gets what's coming to him, if you will merely sit through the 8 year run-up to 9-11 where BOOSH wasn't even a blip on the radar screen.
