Summary: Educational and Interesting
Comment: 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.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Worth the time, everyone should see this
Comment: 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.
Customer Rating:
Summary: ...and the photos are amazing
Comment: 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.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Clean and complete, well researched and executed
Comment: Whether you're Democrat or Republican, pro or anti-Bush, this documentary will help you see the war in an objective light.
Since the 2001 attacks of September 11th, we were constantly feds news bites, clips and news articles for or against going to war with Iraq. Since going to war we have been constantly told why or why not the war was succeeding or failing, both by the media and by politicians. Simply put, the last 7 years have been a media whirlwind and information overload for Americans.
Whether or not you agree with the war, this documentary will give you a complete picture of how it is that our nation's leaders ultimately made their decision. You'll have a clearer understanding of the actual basis for going to war, beyond the talking points we've heard repeated over and over again.
You'll also get an extremely detailed and honest view of the personalities within the Whitehouse Administration and how their arrogance and failure to get along and listen to each other ultimately led us down the wrong path.
My wife and I mistakenly started watching this on NetFlix and we were immediately mesmeorized by the its detail and deep political insight. This program was entertaining, informative and enlightening beyond our wildest expectations.

Summary: Bush's War
Comment: A powerful and exposing story! This 4 hour documentary on the Irag War explains and illustrates how the Bush administration plotted & planned the strategy of convincing the public that Iraq was an imminent threat to the United States and how Colin Powell was purposefully kept out of the loop as the war unfolded. It details Cheney's influence on Bush in keeping Rumsfeld on staff and how Rumsfeld bullied his staff members. Highly recommended.
