Brenda,

What does that have to do with this movie?

I plan on seeing the movie. What did those audiences mean by it being too soon? My understanding is that the families of the victims have given their blesssing and that it was made with the passenger’s heroic acts in mind. I, for one, hope our nation never forgets that day and those who displayed courageous acts so that no other bulidings or innocent victims could be attacked.

I don’t know if the right question is too soon, or why? Why create a movie about a day we all know about? No one will forget September 11, I for one remember exactly where I was when it happened. I am currently living up in NYC and the sentiment especially among college aged adults is the movie is unnecessary and shouldn’t have been made at all.

What reason do those who express the sentiment that it is unnecessary and shouldn’t have been made at all give for their stance?

If a company is willing to spend the money to make a movie like this then that’s their choice (risk). My only hope when movies based on true stories are made is that it follows the facts and doesn’t let the truth be effected by the bottom line.

If the film told the truth, that those passengers were NOT trying to be patriotic by saving the plane from hitting another target, but that they were trying to save their OWN lives, then it might be worth seeing. Hopefully the government didn’t have an influence on it’s production.

Tommy,

Do you know something that I don’t?

I’m sure that part of why they did what they did had to do with wanting to save their own lives (it’s called the survival instinct); but the recorded facts show that they knew what had already happened. Knowing what they knew they decided to make sure that no further attacks took place. I’m sure they realized that they would surely die if they couldn’t get control of the airplane and decided to try anyway, if for no other reason, to keep the hijackers’ plan from succeeding.

I will not see this film and am bordering on being angered at its release. There are a tremendous number of questions about what happened on the flight, as noted in this Philly Inquirer article but with this pap entering the mainstream conscience, legitimate concerns gets a whitewash. The failure of true investigation of these issues, such as noted by some of the genuine issues in the ‘documentary’ “9/11 Loose Change” should itself prevent such dramatizations as these from seeing the light of day. The director, Paul Greengrass, may be known for taking an evenhanded enlighted approach to his topics in the past, but an interview in Entertainment Weekly shows that he’s taking the “official” story to heart here.

Furthermore, with respect to the families of the passengers (who consented to the making of the film) it’s still too soon.

No, I won’t watch it.

I lost my programming job at Northwest Airlines as a direct result of 9/11, as did a large number of my coworkers and friends, and I still feel upset about both the events themselves and the huge impact they had on so many of the folks I knew in the airline industry (over 500 NWA IT people were laid off up in Minneapolis just a few months after 9/11).

It hit the folks in New York and on the hijaacked aircraft MUCH harder, of course, and what we’ve gone through on the periphery is no comparison at all to what those people went through (I can’t imagine it), but there were ripples all over the country that still haven’t completely settled down.

Maybe I’ll never be ready to see a movie like that. I don’t know.

I consider it my duty, if you will, to see this movie.

I hope everyone walks away with a new found respect and sense of honor for their fellow countrymen. I know it is still raw and some are not ready to relive this tragic historical note. However, I also think some are starting to forget what it means to be an American…particularly the kind of Americans that are brave enough to sacrifice a few to save thousands…the kind of Americans that died on Flight 93.

The only opinions on that question that really matter are the opinions of the survivors of Flight 93. Since they’re fine with it, I don’t see where anyone else has a leg to stand on as far as not wanting it to be made.

I’ll see it. And I hope others will too. And then I hope they’ll walk away from the theater wondering why they have a president that sent troops to topple and overthrow the government and Iraq, but continues to allow potential terrorists to walk across our border without going through the proper channels of immigration.

Not seeing it. Too soon. I understand why it’s coming out. I was touched, as were most Americans, that even though 9/11 was such a terrible tragedy, it did the good of uniting the nation. It brought us together.

But then our President divided us even more deeply than we were before with his brash actions and accusations - the “axis of evil,” “if you’re not with us you’re against us,” and of course the costly unilateral invasion and occupation of Iraq with the extremely far-fetched “justification” of an Iraqi-911 link. This movie is just a late response to Michael Moore’s film It also has the added distinction of taking advantage of a national tragedy and people’s strong emotions towards it to make money.

Liberal or conservative, it doesn’t matter, the opposites can agree that 9/11 changed everything. That’s all the more reason to be reminded of what can happen when we let our guard down. All the more reason to go see this movie.

Why wouldn’t you go see this movie? If someone who had no personal connection to Flight 93 can’t move on after almost fives years then there are bigger personal problems to address. Movies were made about Pearl Harbor during WW2 and that was just as bad if not worse. What I want to see is a movie about the capture of Osama Bin Ladin.

Norman Mineta’s testimony to the 9/11 Commission is not in the report…

Why?

What did Norman Mineta say?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=bDfdOwt2v3Y

Norman Mineta on Cheney’s (unknown) ‘Orders’

The testimony of Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta on May 23 about Cheney’s actions is revealing. Mineta said he arrived at the Presidential Emergency Operating Center (PEOC) at 9:20 a.m. where he observed the Vice President taking charge:

Mineta: There was a young man who had come in and said to the vice president, “The plane is 50 miles out.The plane is 30 miles out.” And when it got down to, “The plane is 10 miles out,” the young man also said to the vice president, “Do the orders still stand?”

And the vice president turned and whipped his neck around and said, “Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?” Well, at the time I didn’t know what all that meant. And.

Hamilton: The flight you’re referring to is the.

Mineta: The flight that came into the Pentagon.

After some discussion of whether Cheney’s orders meant to shoot down the hijacked aircraft, it was clearly stated on the record that there were no such orders to do so, which raises the obvious question of what “the orders” were:

Hamilton: And so there was no specific order there to shoot that plane down.

Mineta: No, sir.

Hamilton: But there were military planes in the air in position to shoot down commercial aircraft.

Mineta: That’s right. The planes had been scrambled, I believe, from Otis at that point.

The orders were most likely to STAND DOWN, not intercept and fire. The Pentagon’s own defense battery could have done the job nicely, but that didn’t fire either.

In May of 2001, by presidential order, Cheney was handed direct control of all wargame and drill operations. This meant he was solely in charge of the overlapping NORAD drills and wargames on the morning of 9/11, that prevented Standard Operating Procedure from being implemented, and any of the hijacked planes being intercepted.

Why no mention of the $100,000 wired to these hijackers by the Pakistani ISI (again, CIA trained and funded)?

But, I just am not at peace with how an entire movie came from these calls. Help me!

The movie is speculation about what happened. There was something from the flight recorder tapes transcription in the news a few weeks ago after it was entered in the Moussaoui trial. There is no way that the dialogue on that tape substantiates whats in the movie and those supposed phone calls are not recorded.

For those reasons, I would say, yes, it is too soon for this movie. Fifty years from now when 9/11 isn’t the event that dominates the world, as it is today, they could do a movie that is speculation but doing it now is irresponsible.

Thier silence condones such violence. We are a Christian founded nation, if Muslims don’t like our country and the fact we are based on Christian beliefs, Delta needs the money, get your butts on the planes and fly east.

Personally I was offended when they stopped showing footage of the Sept 11th attacks less than a week after the event. Sure it must be extremely painful for family members to watch, but its necessary education for Americans and people around the world. We may not have forgotten the event itself, but I think the horror and trauma of the event has long faded from memory.

Too soon? This movie couldn’t come at a better time, and the first post in this thread shows the complacency that has set in amongst the majority of Americans. Instead of being aware that over 90% of armed conflicts in this world involve muslims, this guy is worrying that his gas price just went up a few ticks.

Just last week a group of Islamic yahoos protested outside of the Israeli consulate in NY, with signs reading “the mushroom cloud is coming and a picture of the White House flying an Islamic flag.

You can go ahead and chalk my post up to fear mongering, but if we had been paying attention to what was really going on in the global community re: Islamic terrorism against the west (Trade Center bombing, USS Cole, etc.), maybe there would be no reason for this movie to exist in the first place.

If you’re so sure the government planned 9/11, then you shouldn’t really be infuriated that Bush spent 7 minutes reading to kids while the nation was under attack.

And since it’s pretty much a cinch that the government DIDN’T plan 9/11, those 7 minutes of reading certainly did not have in impact on what happened. It’s not like he could have changed the course of history in those 7 minutes.

No, if anything it is not soon enough! We need to be reminded of what is is we are fighting to prevent ever happening again on US soil! We should also have people who were affected by this or at the Trade center do regular interviews so we are reminded as too just how broad a hit America took, this was not just in NY and Washington, DC it affected everyone across the USA and other countries. I watched a program on the downtown hospitalin NY and how they dealt with the emergency that day, it was heart breaking to see the families of victims. the injuries so horrific one just cannot imagine, it broke your heart, but the silver lining was to see the courage of ordinary people who came to the aid of those hurt, it was inspiring, it made me cry, it was disturbing, it was shocking but I do think we need to be shocked back into realizing this issue of terrorism has not gone away. I think it is an honor to the families of those on Flight 93 to make everyone aware of their incredible strength and I am sure abject horror when they realized what they were facing, but they rose to the challenge and sadly and not of their choosing became heros, I thank the passengers of flight 93, and extend my prayers to their families as I know this has to be hard for them, reliving their loved ones last moments so publicaly, thank you for sharing, it is good to know we still have people who love this country and will do what they have to to keep it safe, however unpleasant a task it is.

At first I thought it was too soon, but then I realized that America needs a reminder because too many people are forgetting the horror of 9/11. To me, this has nothing to do with whether or not you believe in the current war or whether you are a democrat or republican. The people on this flight saved lives and should be viewed as heros. Their story deserves to be told. If their families approve of the movie, that’s enough for me. Many people in this country ARE going soft. We NEED to remain angry about this. A previous poster said the terrorists want us to forget and are patient…I couldn’t agree more.

I dont think it is too soon. How many people have visited the FLIGHT 93 sight? This movie has been made with the blessings of the families members who’s loved one was on that flight. If they can move on and live normally, I think it high time we do the same. I think America has forgotten all to quickly about 9/11 and how we were all effected on that day. How many flags do you see displayed on cars? How many flags do you see in front yards? How many flags do people wear on their shirts? For about a month or so after 9/11 you couldnt find a flag, then after the initial shock flags were pilled up, no one wanting to buy them. People were proud to display their flag, Its been quite a while since I have seen a flag on a car, house, ect. People are forgetting….people are too busy placing blame on others and on the goverment to remember the events of that day and how our lives were changed. I do hope the proceedes of this movie goes to the families and the children who were effected by their lost. I am not here to argue or say one poster is wrong and I am right. We all have our view points but one thing I do hope of all of the American citizens is that

This movie should exist because “we need a reminder of the horror of terrorism”? Do we? really?

Continuous replay of this event only assures that we’ll be desensitized to this problem. How much do we need to see this. At worst, fear debilitates; its controled at the base of the brain and overrides any other rational thinking. While this is necessary for survival it makes us vulnerable to control if it is manipulated on a daily basis. No, what we need is enlightenment from that catastrophe that doesnt’t need to come from base repetition of the event.

Are you going to learn from this dramatization more than any past attack on this country? Then let’s play the Pearl Harbor footage everyday too. Terrorism existed as a global problem prior to 9/11/01; we were lucky that prior administrations understood that and took measures to prevent it from reaching the catastrophic damage that happened on that day. When this administration took the white house they were told that terrorism would be their may problem, they ignored it. An antiterrorism task force was to convene 4 times before 09/2001; Cheney, its head never convened one meeting. Bush was warned at the G-7 meeting of fears of highjacked planes being flown into builings, he did nothing. Planes were urges to lock cockpit doors with a $10 per plane latch; the white house buckled to industry cries that eh cost was too much.

What good comes from constantly reliving this he11? We can’t and shouldn’t live every day in fear. It’s proven that terrorism should be dealt with by policing action, not never ending pseudo-“War.” Terrorists claim abuse of power by the governments they terrorize; sending combat troops after all of them in response to the acts of guilty few is exactly the overkill that they cite. There are saner and much more effective solutions. Quickly and surely stopping each terror group, after careful internationally coordinated suveillance, before they act, is the best solution. The only solution involves measured government response that sends a message to other groups that terror won’t be tolerated, but also refuting these groups mantra by showing that the government isn’t above the law either.

The problem isn’t whether we need to live in fear of terrorism, we need to have elected officials who combat the problem before Americans have to deal with it.
That’s one of the roles of the federal government since its founding. We need a white house that is willing to live up to its responsibilities. Without scaring Americans into giving up any more of our Constitutional rights.

What came of 9/11? The “mastermind” is still at large. The officially “responsible” group grew stronger, its numbers swelled (even though it was headed for extinction before). A “war on terror” (although you can’t declare war on a tactic; war on graffiti anyone?) was begun that had nothing to do with ending terror, met the ends of a group (PNAC) whose members include many of this adminstration. This movie delivers another vehicle for this administration to claim its protecting us, without any real action, using our fear against us. This administration’s response to this event bolstered the “cause” of terror groups by inciting more terrorism. Don’t believe me, read the official military report released today.

I have a few questions for the folks who say, “I don’t need to see the movie, I know what happened.”

Why do we need movies about ANY historical subject? I mean, why make a movie about the Civil War, or WWII, or the civil rights era, or Vietnam, or Watergate? We all know how those ended, right?

For that matter, why did we need to see the Abu-Ghraib photos a million times?

The bottom line is that many of you frothing-at-the-mouth, Bush-hating liberals just HATE to be reminded that there are actually people in the world who are more evil than the President.

I just got in from the movie - was very hesitant at seeing it and the horrors we as Americans faced that day. In my opinion, it was a very thoughtul movie, showing, based on phone converstaions with family memebers, what PROBABLY happened - It was extremely, extremely intense, from the scenes at Air Traffic Control, military centers to the brave folks on United 93, calling family members for the last time, to what probably happened in their heroic actions. Go see it, but be forewarned the intensity and emotionally charged, gut-wrenching film that it is. God Bless America - whatever you believe about our current administration.

Indeed 9/11 was an inside job. Those of you who are so quick to dismiss someone who tries to enlighten you and are too frightened and close-minded to check out the facts for yourselves are not patriots. You should care enough to demand the truth about 9/11 and refuse to be duped by this cheap, false melodrama. Unfortunately, this film is another piece of propaganda. Your government has lied to you and that includes people of both parties. While you have been concentrating on Laci Peterson and American Idol, something truly evil has been going on in Washington.

Before you start attacking me for telling you the truth, there are a few facts you need to realize. Did you know that the Neocons, currently in charge of our government including Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Jeb Bush, among others, wrote a manifesto before they took office in which they wished for “A New Pearl Harbor” to gain public support for their agenda of endless pre-emptive wars for empire and greed? On 9/11 their wish came true. If you don’t believe me, look up the Project for a New American Century and educate yourself.

Did you know that the debris from Flight 93 was strewn out over a distance of miles, which indicates that plane was shot down? Did you know that Rumsfeld slipped and said that Flt. 93 was shot down? Did you know that cell phone calls from airplanes were not possible in 2001? Yet we are supposed to believe the story that is spun from those alleged cell phone calls. Almost everything we think we know about Flt. 93 came from those fictional cell phone calls. Sorry, but “let’s roll” is just part of the script.

Did you ever wonder why Bush fought an investigation of the 9/11 attacks, why he and Cheney insisted on testifying together, wihout being sworn in, and why the Secret Service did not whisk Bush to a place of safety immediatly after supposedly being told “America is under attack”? Not only would their inaction endanger the president but also the school children. But the Secret Service knew that no planes were headed toward Florida. THEY KNEW.

Did you know that Bin Ladin had a long association with the CIA and that a CIA agent met with Bin Ladin in July of 2001 in a Dubai hospital and did not arrest him? Did you know that several of the alleged “hijackers” have been seen since 9/11 and that the FBI admitted they are not sure who was on those planes? Both of those stories were covered in the British press. Check it out, if you dare.

If you are a patriot, it is your moral duty to learn the truth for yourself. I once believed the official fable too, but couldn’t understand why NORAD did not protect the skies that day. I went in search of that answer and learned the bitter truth. 9/11 was an inside job.

If you love your country, if you truly care about the innocents who were slaughtered that day, you must take responsibility and learn the facts. Go to 911truth.org and read and think. It’s still our country and we need to seek real justice for the victims of 9/11, instead of allowing the real evil doers to continue their rampage against innocent Muslims who did not attack us.

Forget about your pride and your partisan loyalty and remember that your allegiance should be to the U.S. Constitution and the American people. We must defend our country against all enemies foreign and domestic.

Wow, what an unenlightened broadbrush comment. Someone’s had their recommended daily allowance of Limpbaugh today.

While I wouldn’t presume to speak for all liberals, like say, you. I’d imagine, based on ones I know, that many are more disgusted at Bush’s incompetence at claiming to be qualified to “protect us” without doing any of the hard work. Such as any anti-terror work prior to us getting hit. Such as coordinating any international anti-terror network after the attack. Such as getting the group or even the individual claiming responsibility; heck, he flew the bin Laden family outta the country and to their home right after Sept 11.

Of course, there are people out there who hate Americans, or wrongly attribute bad intentions to us out of ignorance. You know what’s worse than the ignorants/opportunists out there? When one of our own takes on the duty to prevent them from acting on that hate and doesn’t even try to live up to that responsibility. Or what’s worse, using his failure to his advantage (“political capital”).

Hell, his buddy Albaugh led FEMA in early 2001 and they noted 3 threats that would cause the most casualties; a hurricane in New Orleans, an earthquake in ‘Frisco and an attack on New York City. and Bush didn’t do anything to stop any of them. Shoot, he knew Katrina was coming and was of a magnitude that was going to overwhelm local and state ability to handle the threat (and the recently released AP video evinced this) and he stayed. on. vacation. and didn’t send in any national aid. No question the request was made on time. Whether or not he had the responsibility to help (which he did), he didn’t prepare to send a thing. You think he did anything differently between January and September 2001 to prevent any other threat to this country?

So, maybe the question should be: what’s to like about W?

So take your “views” shove it back down your face and leave me alone.

Sweetly,

PJ =)

Eyeswideopen- you’ve made more sense than any, ANY of these gullable, pathetic Americans contributing to this post. If only people weren’t so snowed over by the government… Anyone who shows “emotion” or “sadness” to this film might as well be watching “Bambi”…it’s pure entertainment, nothing factual at all…Why can’t these morons realize this??

I’d like to see some of those people attempt to answer the questions you proposed…but they can’t…

Too soon? I think the American public needs to see this to keep them focused and to see what real heros do. These atrocities must never happen again and we need to stand up and make that very clear.

Flight 93 was warned to be on the lookout for cockpit breach. How then did the hijackers (armed with small knives or boxcutters) get in the cockpit AND deal with the pilots?

The President found it too burdensome to read briefings on terrorism or hold Cabinet level meetings before 9/11…yet quickly moved to pass the Patriot Act after 9/11. Did 9/11 happen because Americans didn’t have enough government intrusion in their lives or because we had a corrupt, completely unqualified President?

I saw the movie today. I really don’t know what all the controversey is about. Lifetime aired a movie not too long ago about Flight 93 and I have to say, I assumed ‘United 93’ would have been a mix of actors and real family members (bits taken from interviews, etc since 2001), but it wasn’t. It really was no different than the made for TV movie. The families gave their blessings for both movies, so why all the hype and controversey now that it’s on the big screen? The made for TV movie focused more on the families, this movie focused more on the air traffic controllers. That was the only difference.

With all due respect to you, Kathryn, while you seem to be able to differentiate what parts of this film are fictionalized/assumed, I worry that a lot of people won’t. One danger with movies like this that appear to be true re-creations, is that that they steamroll over a host of really big problems with the “official” story (like, as mentioned above, cell phones didn’t work on commercial airliners until at least 2004, even at the altitute that 93 was supposed to have attained). The fictionalized version becomes fact in the collective conscience, and people quit probing for the facts.

This is is a feature film gaining more attention than the basic cable TV film, with a bigger potential set of eyes and minds trained on it. Thus it gets proportionately more attention/controversy.

Thanks, Tommy. I think it’s understandable that people believe what the government and media have told them every day since 9/11. It’s painful to realize that the government has lied and the media has allowed it. The “Let’s roll” Flt.93 segment of the official fable is a very popular and cherished part of the government’s story and people will not give it up easily. The government cleverly concocted it to make people too emotional to look rationally at the scenario and see the gaping holes.

It’s very painful to confront the truth but Americans have always had the courage necessary to protect the constitution and our liberty. Please check out 911truth.org and learn the facts, folks. If I am wrong, you have absolutely nothing to lose. But if I am right, you cannot afford not to know it.

I love the double standards on this blog.

It is okay to push Michael Moore’s propaganda down the throats of everyone, but when someone has a backbone and stands up to others, we are sheep!

Biiiiiiiiiiiiite my azzzz….

Americans are not as week as the media wants to protray us. It is always OUR CHOICE to decide to see something or not.We will truly never know what happen on the plane besides the accounts that were made to the public. Hollywood is always going to stretch it a little. I do believe that if the planes weren’t grounded it likely would’ve beeen more tragedys. Why did everything turned negative & politcal on this post. And the comment about North Korea-Bush knows that North Korea is by no means an Iraq.

Thanks to all the truth-tellers on this blog. The truth hurts in this case. The sheep can’t and won’t admit it. Deep in their hearts and souls they know UA93 fable was concocted.

They know their government has valued their lives as expendable. They don’t know what to do so they keep believing they are safe in the hands of W and his cronies.

One day they will understand but it will be too late. God help this nation.

Too Soon?!?!? We should have been seeing these images every day since 9-11! We should be closing the nightly news EVERY DAY with these images. To those who say “too soon”, I say this has been WAY too long in coming. We Americans have forgotten the war we are in and the nature of the enemy we are fighting. We need to get mad and stay mad, and resolve to fight these animals or civilization as we know it is in the balance.

I sometimes forget at the sheer number of barking moonbats that are out there….then, I read some of the comments and was quickly reminded.

Good lord….
