Sir, I thank you for remembering, in the very last paragraph of your huge post, that 2,996 people died five years ago today

I didn’t watch the movie. Did it include the cruise missile attack launched by Clinton which nearly killed bin Laden and did kill a large number of AQ?

There is not just the bungled job at Tora Bora.

There is the August 6, 2001 PDB warning “Bin Laden determined to strike inside US”. That PDB even listed hijacking as one of the likely targets for the attack, yet airports were not made privy of this very real threat.

Lastly, there is the Hart-Rudman Commission report that had many recommendations for beefing up security against possible terrorist attacks, focusing on public transportation. Not one single recommendation from that report had been acted upon. Rather than act upon anything “Clinton” they decided to do an inhouse study. The inhouse study results were put on Bush’s desk on September 10, 2001.

With this as a background, how can anybody be surprised that Bush would do exactly the wrong thing at Tora Bora.

Hehe – never seen so many panties in a twist over a stupid tv movie. Republicans are used to being made to look bad in movies, so now you get a chance. Don’t worry, it won’t happen often and it’s good for the character – toughens you up.

Why do I get the feeling that this “The Path to 9/11″ SEPTEMBER surprise is just a prelude to whatever OCTOBER surprise the Republicans behind this fraud-filled, fact-challenged production have planned?

Apparently the people perpetrating this hoax on America (and the world) cut numerous corners to get this spurious miniseries aired, in September, before October, and before the November elections. Someone put up $40 million to have this smear job made and they are demanding that it air, come hell or high water.

This is what makes me think that this is just a prelude to these same people dropping an October surprise on everyone. Then the shadow people behind this September “plant”, in late October, can point back to this ABC miniseries and say, “look, look, it’s all Bill Clintons fault…again. So, vote for Republicans next week because we can only be trusted with America’s national security.”

It’s all a con job…a conservative Republican con job.

One of my freinds is CIA retired…. he was in Afghanistan at Tora Bora. He was pulled out overnight to go to Iraq. He called one night scared to death when Plame’s name came out… He was put back in Afghanistan….. then on the Pak border where they “lost” BinLaden…. all he really says about it is this…… ” Bush wanted this for the elections”….. so remember Bush likes chaos and requires it to be elected. Must be that old distraction thing that works for him. My freind got stop lossed for over a year too. He’s out now and has totally lost it. He’s bout hooked on nose candy and says… how do you think we stay up for days on end…..

bin Laden is dead. He died in 2002. He has not appeared in any videotapes since.

His second in command is supposed to be in hiding alongside him. So how come we get a constant stream of current videotapes featuring that guy, but none of OBL?

Both sides of the political aisle reap benefits by assuming OBL is still alive.

First, I apologize for not reading through all the 283 comments, but to be technical, PT9/11, as the title implies, only covers the path to 9/11… so the Bushie’s letting Osama slip out of Tora Bora would not be covered. Save that for a completely new docudrama wherein Hillary Clinton is depicted urging Rumsfeld not to send troops to finish the job.

BTW, did anybody see the piece on NBC regarding the flight controllers? They pretty much white-washed that story in stark contrast to the damning documentary “On Native Soil”.

Tora Bora? What about this? In early Oct. ‘01 al Quaeda officials, threatened by an American attack on Afghanistan, offered Bush to extradite bin Laden out of Afghanistan to a neutral nation. Bush’s reply? “They’re not sincere.” End of story.

Given that the bin Laden family has close ties to Bush Sr. through The Carlyle Group is it possible that Osama, the “black sheep” isn’t that black afterall? Requires no stretch of the imagination to believe Osama not only hasn’t been captured, he’s being given protection. This is big-time international intrigue involving big players, big money, and big cover-ups.
