E & P Screens and Summaries the first half of the ABC 911 film

[Robbien]

The almost five-hour film, based on a script by Cyrus Nowrasteh, with Harvey Keitel the biggest name actor on board, is ambitious and often striking in execution, relying often on handheld camera, tight close-ups and creative visuals.

Most of the first half – it ends just before the attack on the USS Cole in late 2000 – explores the terrorist threat starting with the 1993 bombing at the World Trade Center, and there is little question that President Clinton is dealt with severely, almost mockingly, with the Lewinsky scandal closely tied to his failure to cripple al-Qaeda.

The film opens by noting that the bipartisan 9/11 Commision report stated that it did not seek to place “individual blame” on anyone.

The attention on Clinton’s culpability arrives about halfway through Part I, following the successful prosecution of several men involved in the 1993 WTC bombing. Keitel, a security expert and clearly a tough-guy hero in this story, mentions Osama bin Laden (or “the tall one”) for the first time. Richard Clarke, the White House terrorism expert, agrees “we’re at war.”

1. The part about the Afghanistan scene being a 'composite'...

Is 'composite' the new Republican euphemism for 'lie'?

3. It's another bullsh*t reenactment

Yes its a lie.
Perhaps we should assemble a nice composite of Cheney's secret energy meeting.
By the way: for the brass ring: From what film did I pull "Another bullsh*t reenactment"?

2. I'm sorry to learn Harvey Keitel is involved in this. I generally like him

in the movies I've seen him in. So, according to this movie of "catapulted propaganda," it all gets back to Monica? Yeah, that'll work.

5. "Gov. Kean said the scene in Afghanistan and the attempt to get bin Laden

is a composite"?

"gov." kean is an ASSHOLE!

now that his paycheck from the 9/11 commission is gone, he needs to find a new way to make a living--like advising for a hackjob of a "docudrama"!

my favorite part in the "9/11 path to getting americans to believe it's all clintons fault--as usual" is when they're showing massoud saying people in d.c. seem to do more drugs than the folks back in hollywood, and then they cut to clinton on the phone with monica, asking her for another blow job.

then at the end of the movie it shows bush & condi at disneyworld. he wants to hold her hand on the teacup ride but she wants to go for another spin on disney's latest ride: the missiles of terror. george complains that all the dust from those mushroom clouds hurt his throat, and besides, he has to go to the potty. "can i get a bathroom break?" he asks her and she glares at him in a moment of deja vu.
