The Path to 9/11

I highly encourage everyone to watch this movie. I was very impressed. Yes, there is partisan bickering over it, but personally I felt the movie aimed the proverbial "fan" at both administrations. If it seemed to focus more on one, I suggest to you that is only because one of the two administrations spent weeks highlighting the fallacy of the film, so you are searching to see what they found so objectionable. Also, one must consider that while the current administration did have several months of culpability (and even that time, being so critical, shows alarmingly well in this docu-drama) the previous administration had more time with the dropped ball rolling about their feet. Anyone would look bad under those circumstances.

This movie, to me, illustrates the incredible dedication of many people determined to protect their fellow citizens. It also shows the root of the problem: Red or Blue, politicians who put popularity and opinion polls (foreign and domestic) and their re-election chances ahead of the safety of their fellow citizens.

It is a gripping story and well told.
