I saw the movie today and thought it would make a terrific movie to share with my son's former high school, which I will do as soon as the next order gets delivered. The good news is that already over 1,000 copies have been bought!
I plan to circulate my copy to as many people as possible and hope that they can hold house parties or pass it on to anyone they know to get it seen in as many schools as possible.
I assume that many high school/college kids will have had to watch the movie (Path to 9/11) over the weekend and what better way for them to compare and contrast what and how the public is informed of current (catastrophic) events than by getting to watch both movies. They will also get to see first hand what really happened and who said/did what in the days (months) leading up to 9/11 and what really happened during the pursuit of Bin Laden. In Press for Truth they will see and hear things that were buried in newspapers or shown on foreign TV stations, or maybe just one American station and then dropped. They may have been to young to really pay attention to what was happening before/on/after 9/11/01 as 8-13 years olds.
Excellent film! See it and share it!
Hats off to Paul for the film and to Derek whom I know has spent countless hours for the last five years in front of his computer working on the cooperative research website
http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/aboutsite.jspWhat is the history of this website?
In late 2001, the Center for Cooperative Research was founded by Derek Mitchell with the specific aim of creating an online public forum where people could work together to document the historical record. His primary interest is in the development and promotion of systems—both technological and social—which decentralize the production and distribution of needed goods and services as a way to undermine the tendency for power and capital to become increasingly concentrated.

"Following the attacks of September 11th, a small group of grieving families waged a tenacious battle against those who sought to bury the truth about the event—including, to their amazement, President Bush. In ‘9/11 PRESS FOR TRUTH’, six of them, including three of the famous “Jersey Girls”, tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the greatest powers in Washington—and won!—compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.
Adapting Paul Thompson’s definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by HarperCollins as ‘The Terror Timeline’), the filmmakers collaborate with documentary veterans Globalvision (‘WMD: Weapons of Mass Deception’, ‘Beyond JFK’) to stitch together rare overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences, revealing a pattern of official lies, deception and spin. As a result, a very different picture of 9/11 emerges, one that raises new and more pressing questions.
What actions were taken by top government officials who received dozens of specific warnings before the attack? Was Osama Bin Laden and his top al Qaeda leadership allowed to escape U.S. forces in Afghanistan? And what has been the reason for the deliberate obscuring of evidence for state sponsorship? Perhaps the most important one of all: Why, five years later, are so many of the families’ questions still unanswered?"
