    Why is this film not for sale again? Doesn't Hollywood want to make every dollar it can off of these films? I wish I could buy it. I liked the film a lot. The acting was good. The filming was good. It moved fast. It was very interesting as it covered the First Twin Tower bombing as well. It ran without commercials as well on TV which made it memorable - I really liked the Afgan fighters and I was rooting for them. I wish the film would be for sale somewhere - my kids need to see this as they ask about 911 a lot and this film would be a good explanation of what happened and why. Does anyone know where and when the movie will be for sale? Are there any bootleg copies around?

    Honestly...if you remove all the political banter that surrounded this production & actually viewed the broadcast for what it was, which was a 'dramatization' of events that led up to the 9/11 attacks, then anyone could see that this wasn't a 'bad', 'evil' or 'smear' movie. On the contrary, it provides a very intriguing commentary on how the terrorists pulled this off, how we tie our own hands through bureaucratic inaction & red tape, and can be distracted, while bickering along party lines (which continues to this day). What's dishonest is to deny that the 'path' to these events occurred during both the Clinton and Bush administrations (from 1993 - 2001, which is the time frame for this documentary). Things were overlooked & mistakes were made by all parties...the signs were there, but we dropped our guard. And what is unfounded is why we're still not allowed to further scrutinize this production through a DVD release? Step up Disney/ABC...be bold & brave...this is not the era of informative oppression...this is an important piece of work that we should be allowed free & open opportunity to see/buy/discuss, IMHO.

    The Path to 9/11 is an awful example of what can happen to the truth in the hands of those who make it up as they go along.Unbeknownst to most people, this program was part of a deliberate disinformation campaign designed to blame the Clinton administration for allowing the 9/11 attacks to occur.According to The Nation, the director, David Cunningham, is a Christian deconstructionist who is dedicated to using stealth political methods to replace the U.S. Constitution with Biblical law. The movie was written by Cyrus Nowrasteh, a right-wing activist connected to far-right activist David Horowitz's Center for the Study of Popular Culture, which also sells right-wing books and heavily promotes David Horowitz's own books. Horowitz titles include: Hating Whitey and Other Progressive Causes, The Hate America Left and The Politics of Bad Faith: The Radical Assault on America's Future.Following the broadcast of The Path to 9/11, ABC's co-parent, the Walt Disney Company, reportedly ordered an internal corporate investigation into the movie and its intent. One wonders what they found?

    As a veteran of the US Marine corp and severed under several presidents. I would have to say this movie was right on the money. To the US turning its back on the Kurds to President Clinton turning his blind eye to Osama (dont that sound like Obama). Hell Iran had Osama arrested and asked Clinton if he wanted him, Clinton said no. Even though Clinton the one that thought you could only go after these monsters was through the court system had a murder warrant out for Osama, Clinton let him go. This movie can be backed up from DoD and state department records. I am just glad we finally have a president with a back bone like Honorable president Bush and not a wimp liberal like Clinton or Gore to turn a blind eye to the real threat of terrorism.
