Okay, I am yet to see the movie but I intend to critisise it anyway.
The events of 9/11 shattered and destroyed the lives of many Americans, as well as other people throughout the world - whether it was through the loss of a loved one, or just seeing something so horid happen. Do you really think any person would (apparent from terrorists here) want or intend to hurt these thousands of people in such a way, especially someone in a presidential position.
Yes, the Bin Laden family did run out of the United States, but if you knew someone that was involved in such an act and knew that the people wouldn't give you a chance, would you do the same? Think about it - I'm sure you would run if millions of people knew who you werem and would place the blame and responsibility directly on you.

Fahrenheit 9/11 shows us a nation kept in constant fear by FBI alerts
Would you rather be safe, or would you rather have a bomb dropped on your roof, or open an envelope with Anthrax in it?

Fahrenheit 9/11 takes us inside that war to tell the stories we haven't heard
To me it looks more like they are telling more parts of the story, not the whole story.

From the article:
Moore has announced that he won't even appear on TV shows where he might face hostile questioning.
(As he is allowed to present his views of what really happened, I have every right to present my views about him.)
Too chicken to go on a television show because of questions? Why would you be scared if you had nothing to hide? Maybe because his stories might change and people will realise he is full of sh*t? Because he can't handle the fact that he is now hated by many people?

From the article:
However, I think we can agree that the film is so flat-out phony that "fact-checking" is beside the point.
Agreed.
If you're still with me.. read this one too.

A friend of mine said this:
quote:
Stephanopoulos makes a point... Moore doesn't provide any evidence for the "facts" in his movie and when asked why his "facts" can't be found in the 9/11 Commission reports he says that their reports are just preliminary and that they aren't necessarily complete. Which leaves the idea of "How can Moore make any statements if the final reports aren't out?"
