Average Rating:
Rating: 
- Excellent, but not totally complete
Excellent documentary. I supported Bush and his "war". I watched this thinking it would be some kind of stupid Michael Moore-type hatchet job, but it isn't. It is very intelligent and very accurate, mostly.
The only thing I would have liked to see is the following:
- Saddam's history of supporting terrorism (Abu Nidal, the Bin Ladin of the 1980s, was living in Baghdad, when the U.S. invaded. Why ?)
- The 1998 Iraqi Liberation Act, a Clinton-era law that declared ... Read More

- Compelling viewing, wholly informative and greatly enlightening
I am Australian and have a keen interest in America so this was bought for me as a Christmas present.

Rating: - Educational and Interesting
I bought this title for my husband and he has really enjoyed watching it. It is very enlightening about the run-up to the war in Iraq, especially the events surrounding our government during 9/11. Everyone should read it. I'm sure in the years to come this will be watched more by people who want to know how this country became such a mess.
Rating: - Worth the time, everyone should see this
Frontline does a great job of breaking down the need-to-know information and the context when events took place.The strongest endorsement of the documentary is the quality and high-level guests and interviews.I haven't even made it the whole way through because I've seen several parts multiple times.Fascinating.
Rating: - ...and the photos are amazing
I have nothing to add to the praise of the content of this documentary but must comment that so much was told in beautifully shot photos. The one of the moment the cabinet saw the first of the twin towers fall is an extremely moving piece of history.
