#1 Now if only Mel Gibson would only make the Rick Rescorla movie...

#2 I, for one, am SICK of the MSM's blacking out of the video of the WTC being hit. Looking back, I guess I remember it so vividly in my mind that I didn't NEED to see it on TV. But, to recognize the MSM pulled it just 1 week later is horrendous. Like "Have you forgotten", I think it should be shown over and over again to remind us WHY we're in this "long war." And, I don't like being treated like a child because I may not be "able to handle it." Good grief, everything else on TV is put out there, and if I don't like it, I'm told to "turn the channel." Why not this (I know we all know the answer to that question) footage as well?

#3 NS, not sure if Mel Gibson wants to make movies without subtitles anymore.

#4 BA - the MSM is not hiding it to protect *you*. But to protect their allies in this war (the terrorists).

Just like they refused (and still refuse) to call the Beslan School islamists 'terrorsts'. Instead referring to them as a 'gang' or 'hostage-takers', anything but the T-word.

Just like they refuse to call the Palistians who deliberately target and murder (in cold blood) innocent civilians (woman and children) 'terrorists' but instead call them 'militants' or 'palistinian patriots' or 'freedom fighters'.

#5 When I saw what was happening I threw an 8 hour blank tape in the VCR and let it record until it ran out, I figured that either the event was historic (Right) or likely to be "Interpreted" to death (Also right)

It's safe in a drawer, proof against historical alteration and interpretation.

#6 I still have a poster of teh second tower being hit and a "Never Forget" banner on teh bottom on my office wall. I've refused to take it down and it'll be a cold day in hell when they can force me to. There's been complaints from some of my more "swarthy" coworkers. My answer is: it's history, don't like it? Too Fucking Bad. Never Again
