Many thoughts rush into mind when the average American hears the phrase “nine-eleven,” The Path to 9/11(TPT9/11) created the same responses and a plethora more. That’s one of the few positive/neutral comments I can make about this fake-umentary. Though it gave more insight into the prior events to that fateful day, it also uses artistic license to become yet another mouthpiece for the Bush administration.
The basic story line of TPT9/11 starts with the bombings of the World Trade Center Towers in 1993 and then meanders along stopping at other terrorist plots on the way. It paints the picture that America was in imminent danger throughout all of President Clinton’s administration and that they hardly did anything about it. Terrorist plots are thwarted, others completed, bad men caught and others let free -- it’s all the chills and thrills of a movie with all boring-ness attributed to safely doctored truth. Now that my opinion is starting to leak into my discussion of the story let’s move on to that.
At the beginning of each airing there is a disclaimer that stated that TPT9/11 was a dramatization of the 9/11 commission report, meaning that it is based on fact, but people, conversations, and even events were created. With that said, how can this dramatization be taken seriously? It’s about on the same par as an after-school special for parents to watch with their children to help “tackle” the tough issues. Shouldn’t an issue as serious as National Security be treated with the utmost honest and clarity? TPT9/11 has great bias towards the Bush administration, it paints the Clinton administration as uncaring about the terrorist problem, when in fact; they were the first administration to truly look the problem of terrorism in the face. I am worried mostly about the fact that this little movie will be taken as fact by a large number of Americans. They will take that “knowledge” with them to the polls in November. In reality, TPT9/11 is a mockery of explaining what really happened and the only way you can prove me wrong is by reading the 9/11 commission report yourself, which is what everyone really should do.
