This review is from: Clear the Skies - 9/11 Air Defense (DVD)

This is a great minute by minute account of 9/11. It has been one of my favorite documentaries since I first saw it aired on PBS some years ago. It has lots of orignal footage of the day and first-hand interviews with those that were on Airforce One, in the White House, and in the fighter jets. The BBC has really out-done themselves with this one!

This review is from: Clear the Skies - 9/11 Air Defense (DVD)

This play by play by American officials detailing their response on 9/11 to deal with the immediate threat posed from the air was very interesting. I was pleasantly surprised by how candid some of those officials were in their interviews. These were people who were actually engaged in the response that day, including the military, police, journalists and others from political circles. Dynamic film footage of events enhanced the points covered in the interviews.

As an aside, it was also interesting to read the various reviews and stances taken by others who have seen this documentary. Whether one agrees with all of the information provided by those interviewed, or leans more towards a conspiracy theory, I highly recommend "Clear the Skies: 9/11 Air Defense" to anyone who has an interest in learning more about the tragic events of that day.

For those hard of hearing, there were no subtitles available with this dvd.

Clear the Skies - 9/11 Air Defense; This is a fantastic documentary and behind the scenes look at what occurred on September 11, 2001. A very compelling look at our President and military's response to the terrorist attack upon our nation.
