Important: Film and Request, Thank You
All:

I attended a showing of a 911 film, called "Everyone's got to learn sometime," a documentary on 911 which was presented at Robert De Niro's Screening Room last week. The film is made on a low budget and so the production of it is not as one would expect from a better funded documentary. That said, it deserves to be seen if for no other reason than it was made, period. But it does raise questions we need to ask or at least consider.

There are no theories, just questions. There are no answers, just questions. The most powerful moment in the film comes in the now infamous scene of the President sitting in a Florida classroom. The way this film portrays that full episode has to be the most alarming thing I have ever seen.

I think this film needs to be seen. The director and all the volunteers associated with it are making no money from it and they don't expect to. What they simply want is for this film to be seen. You need not agree with the documentary or with the questions raised, but you must contend that the movie deserves to be seen in a free society. I bring this last part up because of a few key issues:
On the day of the showing, the show was sold out, yet many seats were empty and no one could figure out why. Then it was noticed that the street was blocked off by police. It turned out that a "suspicious package" arrived a little while prior to the start of the film and people were unable to access the road because of the incident. In addition, there has been some previous harassment of the director, something that he can discuss better than I as I don't have all of the information.

Again, you need not agree with the questions or even the reason for a documentary on this topic. But if we are to live in a free society, this type of intimidation cannot be allowed. A movie simply asking questions regarding the administration has as much right to be shown and seen as The Passion or any other film, be it fiction or non-fiction. It does not matter if you agree or disagree with the topic, what matters is the freedom such tactics challange.

So I am hoping that you might send this out to your list of contacts and ask that people watch this and distribute it as widely as possible.

1. Folks, this really IS worth 70 minutes of your time.
It's great introductory material for those wishing to understand the basics of 9/11 discussion. However, for those who have been around the block, as it were, on the 9/11 information trail it still does an excellent job providing facts and tying them together clearly.

8. Ok but first...
does this movie prescribe to the LIHOP? Because I cannot stomach that lie one more time. I am interested in seeing this, just want to know first.

I am a proud MIHOP'er ....out of the closet and not donning my tinfoil hat! ;)

7. I discovered this AM it is a bit torrent for anyone who wishes to
download it.

I haven't viewed it yet, but I heard it is a must see. 911 Citizen Watch, a group that acted in concert with some of the 9/11 families is advocating it on its site.

BTW LaLa! Thank you for the google link! The filmakers did say that after it premiered at Tribeca it would be available for free on the Net! Loose Change 2 is rated as the #4 video at Google, lets get this one rated up too!

25. This looks very interesting
Looking forward to watching the whole thing. Just watching the first 20 minutes, has me sick to my stomach. It will be good to get this out to the public for those who have never discussed these different questions that alot of us have been asking for years now. Good to have them all in one spot. Thank you so much for passing this on to us.

27. Maybe 'The Plot To Seize The White House' can one day be shown too
""HBO, however, canceled the cable movie The Plot To Seize The White House. The film was to be based on the 1933 attempt by the American kleptocracy to stage a violent coup to dislodge President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The coup leaders which included notable families --Rockefeller, Mellon, Pew, Pitcairn, Hutton; and great enterprises-- Morgan, Dupont, Remington, Anaconda, Bethlehem, Goodyear, GMC, Swift, Sun....approached Major General Smedley Butler because the populist Marine seemed to be the man to mobilize a 500,000 man army to accomplish the coup. Butler, however, turned to congress which convened hearings. The HBO writers abandoned the project because even though 70 years has elapsed most of the testimony held in closed session has still not been made public to this day proving once again that Karl Popper deliberately kept his head in a little niche way, way up his large intestine.""

The BFEE had been waiting almost 80 years to pull of their fascist coup d'etat and now that they've done it they've got to look at themselves in the mirror (and live with what they've done).

USMC Gen. Smedley D. Butler should have a national holiday named in his honor. This guy PERSONALLY saved the country from disaster those many years ago. Let's hope the people, like the guy who made the film this thread is based upon, are up to the challenge -- and have the guts that Butler showed away back when.

29. "the most important story of our lifetime" . . .
according to Congressman Curt Welden (a Republican) . . . and where is the media??? . . .

this film is an excellent propaganda piece, i.e. information specifically designed to CONVINCE people of something . . . in this case, the fact that there are many unanswered (and even unasked) questions about 9/11 . . . and that, collectively, these questions lead to what can only be described as the largest conspiracy in the history of the nation . . . maybe even in human history . . .

it's often difficult to keep up with the many BushCo transgressions and put them into some overall context that makes sense . . . this film helps do that . . . it would not be inappropriate to start referring to BushCo and all of their transgressions as the PNAC Conspiracy -- because that's exactly what it is . . .

30. I just finished watching it and it is a must see for everyone, and please
pass it forward. I downloaded it and burned it to dvd to share with friends and family.

I have known most of the info contained and very little of it has made it into a 9/11 documentary. Thank goodness more info is now going to get out there!

31. MUST SEE. MUST SEE.
This must be passed all over the place. There are things in this film that are new to even me. This is absolutely damning as hell. Having only watched half, I can say that it is absolutely impossible that this was not designed and executed by this administration and the Bush family. No doubt.

I'm sending this to everyone I know.
