Former CIA officer writes....

Like saying the CIA knew whew UBL was 10 times doesn't jack to me, like was it a "slam dunk"

"The Democratic Party as well as Bill Clinton, Sandy Berger, Madeline Albright etc. don't want the truth to be known. If they did, they would have gotten involved with the film at the outset. They had opportunity, but chose not to get involved..."

This is pure BS. The guy who wrote the script is a close friend of Rush Limbagh, a Christian Coalition political writer. 900 advanced copies of the tapes were mailed out to Fox and other conservative correspondants and politicos, but not a single one to any former Clinton administration people -- the people who are being slandered in this "film."

It's amazing how easily fooled Compassionate Conservatives are nowadays. The cool aid must be kicking in.

Sorry for the typos on my first post. First Amendment//personal views etc...

By the way, where are the GOP leaders with this censorship on display? Hiding? We are certainly on our own out in America land. We barely have true representatives. I will hold my nose to vote for the GOP-- the lazy ones who keep the borders open. Both parties are responsible but the American public is the problem for allowing stuff to continue as we have it, find a mirror. Too bad the masses would not boycott, we would see changes! Gosh, we need term limits!

I hope the movie runs just the way the movie was made and let the chips fall where they fall.

First, this is such a clear violation and a intimation by a political party in the United States to threaten a news group, what we have been witness to in reference to this movie airing or not in the first place. You have to give it to ABC for putting the funds and interest in the movie number 1. With some of the reviews that I have read it cuts both ways in which much had could had been done to have changed the way we look at terrorism or threats.

What do I mean by violation?

It’s a clear violation of the First Amendment. It’s that simple, not extreme to see. All of those who are trying to force this airing to be stopped should be prosecuted due to violation of the first amendment and those trying to topple the government censoring free speech... but due to the fact we live in such a political correct environment and men can’t be men anymore, we got we got and one party can rewrite the rules for them to regain power or have power. There’s only one way to read a law, too many are interjecting their spin, their own person views to fit them, on our laws...

I don’t get it---we have so many blessings here while other people on this earth are suffering. - Whatever higher power you hold close, must be looking at this, as man’s doings. Why so many citizens put their politics before their own country. All the service men and women we have fighting for us and the ones out there in far way places reading data, watching the skies, gathering research and evaluating this data to prevent any attack so we can go along with our daily routines. We can assume their routines are pretty much watching the same data and dressing up in much the same heavy gear and watching their backs from being cut down to pieces... Then we read many want to do is put their nation second, third or somewhere over free speech. What about the constitution... The extreme liberals and people who do not pay full attention to what’s really going on and people who put your personal agenda first are getting us all in a situation to where the nation is complacent and just thinking this stuff will not happen again. Some do not want to think and prepare for the worse.

The terrorist are using the American media to get their propaganda out and sorry to say that our American media is fully satisfied to help them because most networks are owned or run by liberals who love their ideas and want those ideas in the mainstream, I suspect. The left keeps the print or on line media flooded with their ideas trying to make it look as though it’s mainstream thinking. They are dangerous citizens within. May want to call them little terrorist within. I do. Every country has them and we know them as Marxists or Stalinists.

All the people who have condemned President Bush, I would love to look through your closets and see what all you have done or not done. It's easy to talk but can you walk the walk like our brave soldiers are doing. Most of us could never amount to those guys as in bravery and really knowing what it means to put all this political mess in the back and put the love of our county first.

Clinton made his legacy, no movie, no TV drama...No tidbit on the newsstand will change that. It’s clear he dropped the ball (yes, I know he dropped his pants) of being a good leader. Clinton faked a war to get the Monica gate off the news. He is a sick person to have done that... we were hit many times while Clinton was in office—US Embassy in Africa and the firebombs Twin Towers. USS Cole attack. He shot one military missile then went back to Monica. Big deal, yes it is while many died... His wife knew this and she knew Madeline Albright was just a potato head and would do as she was told. That woman is a disgrace in my book, movie or no movie... Hillary makes Martha Stewart look like a girl scout. One day, his legacy will be written and it will not be the one that he likes because not everyone is spoon fed by the communist leaning networks. The Clinton administration had some of the worse people with the worse backgrounds working in the government, too bad someone today will not have the guts to rat them out and put their country first. Most of the elected officials are corrupt or afraid to speak out for a number of reasons... How they continue to get way with so much, like Sandy the Burglar stealing from the National Archives is beyond insane why he was not put in prison. I wonder if those papers would prove without a doubt that President Clinton did have those meetings and talks to let OBL go -- making those parts in the movie a reality?? May explain to me why Clinton, Burger, Harry Reid and Albright pressured ABC to squash FREE SPEECH and the FRIST AMENDMENT. Sounds like a dictator to me.
The liberals are liberals first; I said this years ago and now more proof... Guess I see why they get away with all this illegal stuff...They have their hands and threats in news agencies. Clinton was a dictator led by hand while in the government now the real one wants to play... He spent more time out of the country, like Kerry, bashing President Bush and their own country. The constitution made America, not the political correct movement which is hell bent on destroying America. No matter who is in office in the future we will have more attacks because the enemy is bad people (I cleaned that up). So, keep blaming one side instead of being united. I hope the liberals’ loose in 2006/2008. The GOP is lazy for allowing this crap and the DNC are run by leftist and Marxists. I will be voting, you can count on it because I love my country not a party.

You know why a Lefty boycott of ABC won't work? Because most Lefties are unemployed and don't have any money to spend anyway.

Call this crockudrama what it is-propaganda that is intended to sway the November elections.

The 911 attack impacted every American who was old enough to understand what had happened. It should be addressed respectfully, seriously and above all, honestly.

ABC has demonstrated once and for all that it is nothing more than a propaganda machine that exists to advance it's parent company.

ABC how stupid do you think we are? Airing some tainted view of 9/11 before elections?! You guys are pawns, I'm truly disgusted and will put you on my Parental do not watch list. I can't have my children watching propoganda, lies etc. They'd be better off watching MTV.

And for the rest of you...Bin Laden would have gotten away with 9/11 regardless of who was in office...why not blame GeorgeI? He and Rumsfield are responsible for training BinLaden to fight the Russians and giving Saddam the gas to kill the Kurds? Think about it

does this film show the 3 attemtos richard clark made to get cheney to gather an audience with the president about the intelligence on bin laden using planes to attack us? condy rice thinking the memo was vague, not even advising the airlines totake pre cautions of pending threats? why was anti terroism funding cut under bush. why were the bin ladens allowed to fly out of here on 09/13? the movie is a joke made for the one dimensional thinkers who think they own the flag. we are revpulsed by this slander. more fun exists on the bush ranch, home fo the 5 week vacations where people ignonre warnings of plane attacks. does this make you feel better about the deaths of 100,00 innocent iraqi's who died over false manufactured evidence.( oh thats righthow could you possibly believe that fact, it makes you justify what has sinfully happened)

Hmmmm...is this the same CIA source that said Saddem had "Weapons of Mass Destruction" and that Iraq had al-Quada training camps and that Saddem had something to do with 9/11. Just wondering.

C'mon all you oh so smart people. You don't know the name of the counterintelligence agent outing Bill Clinton for passing up to 12 chances at bin Laden? Have you been in caves, too? The name - Michael Scheuer. Read his book. He is the former head of the CIA's bin Laden unit.

I now must factually boycott both ABC and Disney!

if abc doesnt air this program in its unaltered version it would be a bloody shame the truth should be let out the the clinton administration was just as much to blame for terrorism in this great country just as much as the bush administration. anybody with have a brain should remember the blotched attempt by the clinton administration to kill bin laden with a cruise missle in pakastan in the 90"s and it was suspected then that when the the clinton administration informed the pakistan goverment of what there where doing that someone in the pakistan government warned bin laden about the pending missle strike and he barely escaped so you cant tell me there isnt alot of truth in these events

Since this movie is obviously a political movie, I am not interested in even seeing it. I don't want to be someone who has to either be upset at another political party or someone who is defensive about the other. I don't care about the politics and that is obviously what this movie is about, or it wouldn't have caused this kind of controversy. I already know what happened that day. We had people in this country who were already under suspicion of terrorism. They went to school to only learn to fly a plane and not to land it. Some of those terrorists didn't even have picture identification and were still allowed to board their plane. Warnings were issued everywhere, but nobody cared. And much, much more. I don't need to see this movie if its goal is to politicize such an event.

Jake, why don't you identify the CIA officer? He's a liar who is only interested in slamming the Clinton administration with right-wing lies.

Who is this former CIA? Why won't you name your source, or at least tell us where you found the quotation? Is this how ABCNews is doing things now?

Must be nice living in the conservative alternet reality, where apparently there was no conservative outcry over Farenhiet 9/11, and apparently "The Reagans", CBS insufficiently laudatory docudrama was never even produced.

Back here in the real world, there was a crapload of conservative outrage over Farenhiet 9/11, even though it was privately produced and shown in theaters where only those, who chose to pay for it, were subjected to it.

Back here in the real world, conservative threw such a fit over "The Reagans" that is was pulled, and it wasn't even set to run without commercials before an election.

Oh, and to the uninformed poster above, they are NOT ABC's airwaves. They are the PUBLIC's airwaves, which ABC uses for free under government liscense.

"A former CIA officer with much counterterrorism experience writes:"

Are you sure he's a REAL former CIA officer. He's not a composite put together for dramatic effect, is he?

we need to see this movie in its entirity, no matter what the politicians say, no matter what party they are. We MUST NEVER forget who killed all those people, it was terrorists!!!Please don't edit this film. From what I've heard there is enough blame to go around.We are ALL AMERICANS

It's very sad when you see what abc thinks of our president bush. how pathetic that they would drop this low. i now put fox news above abc. it's a sad daay for america

"As someone who has far more insight than the paid CIA/ABC shrill, let me tell you folks something - the night before 9/11, George Bush Sr. was having a meeting with OBL's brother. Yes, HIS BROTHER, right before the WTC attacks.

Clinton never did have a good shot a OBL, something the Republican Media won't talk about. The only clear shot was at Tora Bora and of course Bush let him slip away to Pakistan, on purpose.

Continue to believe the lies folks, you just make the CIAs job that much easier.
