It's about time, December 25, 2004
This review is from: Fahrenhype 9/11: Unraveling the Truth About Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 (Paperback)
After seeing Moore's movie I thought it would be great to read a rebuttal; which is exactly what this is. This is another author that cannot stand to see Moore mislead the people.
This should be handed out like programs when watching Moore's movie.

More lies about Moore, December 11, 2004
This review is from: Fahrenhype 9/11: Unraveling the Truth About Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 (Paperback)
This book feebly tries to rubbish Michael Moore's historic film. The truth is, as Mike LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle commented, "In the 90-year history of the American feature film there has never been a popular election-year documentary like this one." The film won the Palme d'Or at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival. Millions of people across the world have now seen the film.
Moore tells us about the botched war against Al Qa'ida, and how the US state was completely unprepared for the attack, even though bin Laden had declared war on the USA in 1996. He details how the Bush administration, although repeatedly warned of an imminent attack, prepared no counter-attack and took an amazing two months to launch a military response.
Moore reminds us that the 9/11 Commission found `no credible evidence' of any link between Iraq and Al Qa'ida. Vice-President Dick Cheney responded to this Report by repeating robotically that there was `overwhelming evidence'. President Bush added helpfully, "The reason I keep insisting that there was a relationship between Iraq and Saddam and Al Qa'ida is because there was a relationship between Iraq and Al Qa'ida."
Moore denounces Bush and Blair's diversionary attack on Iraq, a country which has never attacked the USA or Britain and has never threatened to attack the USA or Britain. This unnecessary war of aggression has cost the USA more than a thousand soldiers' lives, and $166 billion, so far.
What does Troxler say in rebuttal of these facts? Nothing - just nasty smears.
