One thing the movie brings up that no one has rationailized is why did Bush allow Bin Ladin's relatives to leave the U.S. right after 9/11.

There is no proof of that, and even if there was, there is no PROOF that Bush himself said "Ok, they can go home."

Again this guy feeds on conspiricy by tossing gas on it. If he is such a great film maker then why in the hell doesn't he do a documentary on how Clinton signed the marshal law order two hours before the explosion in Oklahoma? How in the hell did Clinton have foreknowledge of this event? Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm? Simple the way it played out was NOT the way it was suppose to.

But will M. Moore do a documentary on this? Oh hell no. Shame on you Mr. Moore, shame on you!

Other than the fact that said relatives have -disowned- him, and the idea was to get them away from murderous idiots? Kind of like the guy who killed a Sik here in Arizona a few days later. Because he wore a turban.

Hmm, how about the next time someone commits murder we sentance their family to death too. That'll go over well.

Phoenix - you are going to have to do better than that - there were relatives of the hijackers that were being arrested simply because they were relatives. The Bin Ladins, on the other hand, who might have had knowledge of Osama's whereabouts were allowed to leave the country without even any questioning - sure sounds fishy to me.


Atrocities - It's common knowledge. Also - Clinton is no longer President don't know why you keep bringing him up. If anything I would compare Bush to Nixon but I won't go there.

It's not common knowledge. I never heard that before.

actually it is common knowledge. There has been news reports on this over the Last few years.

Well I thought it was common knowledge. Maybe it is not.

The family left on Sept 12th and 13th. From cities in the USA and flew to Boston. 1 week later they left the country. The Saudie Govn't asked for help on this. The FBI and the American Govn't agreed.
Just because your related does not mean your involved.

So a half truth. Used by Moore to further his train of thought in the movie.

P.S. his family 'disowned' Bin Ladin publically many years before.
