Writer of ABC’s 9/11 ‘Docudrama’ Is Avowed Conservative Activist»

Path to 9/11 graphicABC will air a “docudrama” next weekend called “The Path to 9/11″ which blames President Clinton for the 9/11 attacks while praising President Bush.

The writer of the movie is an unabashed conservative named Cyrus Nowrasteh. Last year, Nowrasteh spoke on a panel titled, “Rebels With a Cause: How Conservatives Can Lead Hollywood’s Next Paradigm Shift.” He has described Michael Moore as “an out of control socialist weasel,” and conducted interviews with right-wing websites like FrontPageMag.

The problem isn’t that Nowrasteh is conservative. The problem is that Nowrasteh and ABC are representing “The Path to 9/11″ as an unbiased historical drama. Promos for the movie say it is “based on the 9/11 Commission Report.” Nowrasteh claims he “wanted to match the just-the-facts tone of the report,” and describes the project as “an objective telling of the events of 9/11.”

Here’s some of the objectivity you can expect: Nowrasteh says the film shows how Clinton had “frequent opportunities…in the 90s to stop Bin Laden in his tracks — but lacked the will to do so.” He has referenced Clinton’s “lack of response” to Al Qaeda “and how this emboldened Bin Laden to keep attacking American interests.” A review today in Salon.com says the film paints Clinton “as a buffoon more interested in blow jobs than terrorists.”

    This is how Republicans spend your tax dollars


  2. aarp Says:

    Not to stand up for this ‘tard but Micheal Moore… well, he is “an out of control socialist weasel.”


  3. The DLC are Frauds Says:

    Such a serious look. He must be a serious person with serious ideas that we should take really seriously.


  4. Tobey Tall Says:

    Republicans also missed Bin Laden at Tora Bora and also his hospital bed in Saudi having Dialasis from and American Doctor

    This was deliberate as with bin Laden captured it was time to leave Afghanistan and a big gas pipeline chance wasted

    Also Bin Laden is dead so you should leave anyway - your not paying the warlords backsheesh anymore like the last elections….. Afghanistan will be free next elections …….Unless America installs a dictator ???? as in 43 other countries since 1945


  5. suggie Says:

    How desperate can they get? As anyone knows, each president inherits both good and bad from his predecessor. (perhaps clinton should blame it all on Papa Bush now??) The true measure of a president’s performance, aka his “legacy”, is the measure of his accomplishments during the time he was in office, regardless of what his “inheritance” was from the President he followed. It’s really as simple as that and certainly levels the playing field for evaluating each one on their own merit.

    To say that Dubya has nothing positive he can tout is an understatement so it’s clear that this “activist” is digging deep to besmerch the character of Bill Clinton. Give the american people some credit for a moderate amount of intelligence, please! We can clearly see the “blame game” in all it’s glory every day of the week and now will see through the tactics of this docu-whatever-you want-to-call-it.

    In fact, this will only serve to highlight the worthless “blame game” which is characteristic of this administration. The old “PASS THE BUCK” theory. By now the american people have caught on though and will hold this man totally accountable for his errors in judgment, lies, and treachery. And, absolutely NO ONE ELSE! He’s the President now and the buck does stop there!

    What are his outstanding accomplishments to date??????????Just wondering…

    The Repbulicans are so desperate, they’re throwing out crap to see if any of it will stick, and it DOES land on about 35% of the population. What angers me most is that ABC is even thinking of airing it. Is there a petition somewhere we can sign?

  8. coachjason Says:

    Wait a minute… not fair. You libs made me sit through Fahrenheit 9/11 and told me to shut up, not disagree with it and obey your master Moore. So now, just watch this show, you might learn something. If not, then you can just come back here and bash republicans some more.


  9. Tom3 Says:

    911 happened on Chimpy’s watch. Not Clinton’s.

    Interesting story about Clinton and Osama. The CIA had a bead on Osama and wanted to kill him. They went to Clinton for the OK.

    Clinton had to let Osama go. Not because he’s weak on terrorism. Because Osama was entertaining half the Dubai royal family and Clinton couldn’t kill them too.

    Now Chimpy is letting Dubai buy up all our ports. The same Dubya Ports World that bungled security in Yemen and let terrorists blow up the USS Cole.

    Yeah right, Clinton’s fault. What a load of bullshit.


  10. LOOKATYOURSELVES Says:

    OUT RIGHT PROPAGANDA
    Blatant bullshit for the gulable ignorant of america to swollow…Hitler and all NAZIS are smiling in their hell,financed by BUSH’s grandfather Prescot,the banker and backer of NAZIS,fact of real history….
    Film is based on the 9/11 report that was also just cover up propaganda, the theory is to keep repeating lies until they are part of societies memory….IMPEACH-PROSECUTE-EXECUTE is a new slogan for TRUTH


  11. Jeb Says:

    Hmm. Blowjobs…. Terrorists… Hmmmmmm. That is a toughie. I’m not the elected leader of the free world, but I’m really leaniong towards blowjobs myself. That’s a tough situation to be in. See? None of us can truly appreciate the responsibilities of being President.


  12. Al Gore Says:

    ABC is releasing this in reaction to the Fed’s offering a “9/11 conspiracy theory” rebuttal.

    Also, ABC has over the years has set out to prove “conspiracies” wrong, i.e. Kennedy assasination, and the Faked moon landing. Tons of mis-information and flat out lie’s.

    the film paints Clinton “as a buffoon more interested in blow jobs than terrorists.” - - Sadly, I know quite a few Republicans who say that exact thing. W gets a free pass for the sins of Bill.


  16. oldtree Says:

    clearly this ‘writer” would like to get a blowjob and can’t
    thus he writes a blowjob instead. common transference


  17. Manuel Says:

    And Michael Moore is neutral ?? Come on .. this post really doesn’t deserves to be published.


  18. Tom3 Says:

    At least Bill Clinton received blow jobs from a woman.

    Chimpy gives blow jobs to his man-whore Jeff Gannon.

    Then he bashes gays to win votes from the Religious Reich.


  19. proudleftists Says:

    It’s just more of the liberal media .


  20. Kelley Says:

    What do you care to wager that this shameful excuse for journalism fails to mention the fact that Bush kept postponing meetings with Richard Clark regarding terrorist threats to the US until 9/11 occurred? I’s also wager there’s no mention of Bush’s meeting with an unnamed CIA staffer who flew to his Texas ranch to call his attention to the August 6, 2001 memo entitled “Bin Laden determined to strike in US.” Bush told that staffer that he had “covered his ass.”

    Bet that didn’t make it into the film

    Even if Clinton wanted to do something about bin Laden, the current terror hawks were so busy worrying about his blow jobs, and tying him up in unncessary, partisan litigation that he could not have dealt with the issue if he wanted to. Nope, sorry, Clinton is definintely not to blame for 9/11. It was under his watch that the appropriate intelligence was gathered. Bush, then as now, ignored it.


  21. Al Gore Says:

    At least CLinton tried to get Bin Laden. Bush and Co dont seem to care about killing/catching him. They have spend nearly a trillion dollars that has only made up worse off. If you blame Clinton, a president who was tring to kill the leaders of Al Quada, you are very, very stupid or just plane brainwashed. Yes Clinton could have done more, but Bush and co. have done nothing!

    911 was an inside job. Government power, oil, banking, military power, and defence contracts, all had some kind of hand in making 911 an inside job. Whether they know it or not.


  22. Tom3 Says:

    Manuel, you are a Chimpyloving moron.

    Michael Moore financed his own independent film on 911. It was not broadcast on an American TV network (It probably never will be). Moore even had problems with a distributor trying to back out on him. And Michael Moore is up front about being partisan. He never claimed 911 was going to be neutral.

    This conservative jackass claims he will be neutral and he obviously isn’t. And he’s getting this played on a TV network. This is a huge difference.

    911 happened on Chimpy’s watch. Chimpy ignored warnings. Chimpy sat in a school room reading My Pet Goat for seven minutes after the second plane hit.

    911 is NOT Clinton’s fault, and anybody who says otherwise is a lying sack of shit.


  23. Samuel Knight Says:

    Michael Moore isn’t neutral, but he’s factual. 9-11 was a documentary. This is shoddy little docudrama with fake facts slipped in.

    Bummer for you right wingers, isn’ it? Michael Moore that left wing looney get his facts right.


  24. the fly-man Says:

    It’s a movie for Christ’s sake. A goddamn movie. Will someone please remind the Right that the President and his administration doesn’t deal with hypotheticals.


  25. Tobey Tall Says:

    SPEAK ABOUT PROPAGANDA LISTEN TO THIS
    HA HA HA FUNNY

    The New york times tells of suicide Martyrdom Videos WELL THIS WAS THE TRUTH

    A London defense lawyer for a 17-year-old suspect who cannot be named told the newspaper police had misconstrued evidence when they charged her client with “possession of items that would be of use to terrorism.”

    Gareth Peirce criticized police for calling documents found in the youth’s home “suicide notes” signed by other young Muslim men preparing to die.

    “They’re not suicide notes at all,” Peirce said. “They’re really simple wills. To call these suicide notes was absolutely disgraceful.”


  26. George W. Bush Says:

    I want to thank the makers of this fine film for pointing out that I personally stopped those terrorists from attacking us on 9/11, and have gone on to spread democracy through the Middle East, and have rid the world of evil.

    Now I must return to my brush clearing.

    ========
    I’m not sure what you’re confused about, 40 - the MSMs liberal bias or Fox news being number 1? Or both?

    First by way of a quick object lesson-example, think Rathergate and the phony memos.

    Second, Fox is the most watched news - at least on cable & sat. That makes them “Number 1″ in the ratings. The reason for their success is most liekly due to Americans dislike of the liberal & already dying MSM. On Fox they can catch the liberal cryers & complainers along with the solid, steady just-the-facts hard news, i.e. balance.

    the more germane docudrama is airing right now on HBO entitled: THE DAY THE LEVEES BROKE…CHAPTERS 1-4. This is something we can directly attribute to him and his watch - FAILURE - of the largest magnitude.


  62. Exley Says:

    “Former ABC News anchor John Miller, now the FBI’s Assistant Director of Public Affairs, was also a consultant on the project. His book, The Cell, co-authored with Michael Stone, was optioned by ABC for use in the teleplay. In addition, The Relentless Pursuit by Samuel Katz was also optioned.

    The Path to 9/11 is executive-produced by Marc Platt (Empire Falls). The producers are Hans Proppe (Anne Frank) and Cyrus Nowrasteh (also the writer); and Governor Thomas H. Kean (Chair, The 9/11 Commission) is senior consultant. The director is David L. Cunningham. The miniseries is a production of UHP Productions, Ltd., and will be distributed by Touchstone Television”

They keep going back to the same old dirty well but the well’s gone dry this time.

    And if some experts laid the blame entirely upon Bush, would that suffice your quest for the truth?

    I say, let the film makers cite their sources for every factual allegation they make. Michael Moore did that on his website. Surely those who support President Bush can do the same.

    Don’t be stupid, okay? I don’t care if they show the movie as long as they don’t try to stifle members of the Clinton administration or members of the 9/11 Commission or members of the intelligence community who just might want to step forward and point out some inaccuracies in it. If it turns out to be factual and it makes Clinton look bad, then fair enough. Unlike the extreme right, I like to see the truth come out.

    And, as for Fahrenheit 9/11, I’m still waiting for any of its right-wing critics to give one specific example of what they say are lies in that movie. I heard a lot of righties saying “It’s all lies” and then admitting that they didn’t even see the movie.

    There is nothing these Rednuts can do to change the fact that 9/11 happened on Bush’s watch.

    They keep spending millions and millions of dollars (much of it syphoned of us taxpayers) to re-write history, but NOTHING changes the fact that Bush ignored the warnings before 9/11

    Bush was caught with his pants down on 9/11, and the reason he talks such a big talk is because he knows he let America down

    Bush sent two CIA agents away when then disturbed his vacation with a warning that Bin Laden wat plotting an attack on the US.

    They can try all they want. They can spend all the money they want. But nothing will change this. Nothing.

    I sent in my complaint, too. I’ll just have to watch Lost on DVD…

  86. UKBristolDave Says:

    I’m not sure if the blame game is right for 9/11. Terrorism plots are hard to crack, they only need to get it right once and they got it right on that day. To put some context around that, most of the people I know in the UK don’t blame our government for failing to stop the 7/7 tube bombings - the debate on whether the Iraq war was a root cause is something for another board I feel.

    It’s bloody hard task for the security forces and it’s got to be about lessons learnt rather than who was responsible. We learnt the hard way during the troubles and are still learning. Does blaming the government - whoever is heading it up - help? I’d say no.

    Difference is, Bush had warnings. Lots of warnings, which he ignored.

    This could have been stopped. Plus, there are a lot of unanswered questions that point to some level of gvt. complicity.

    It’s always a win/win world in the Bush/Coulter Republican Mind.

    -GSD


  103. TerrytheTurtle Says:

    ukdave - all the signals were there in 2001. they did nothing. in 1999, the millenium bomb was foiled because the clinton admin reacted by ’shaking the trees’ of all the law enforcement agencies. so yes, how an admin responds is important. the anger you read here is caused by that and by the bushevik’s subsequent attempt to cover-up or smear anyone who told them ‘i told you so’ in 2001.

    and I looked at ma too - not wise in an airport departure lounge.


  104. trueblue Says:

    UKBristolDave,

    That and more. There were numerous warning, much like that one.
    There was a CIA agent (I think CIA) who went directly to him because he was so concerned. Pres told him, “OK. You’ve done it. You’ve covered your ass.” What kind of idiotic response is that?

    Plus all the questions.

    I didn’t want to be a conspiracy theorist, but after having so many unanswered questions and just strange coincidences, I have to admit I’m on the “Gvt. had something to do with our worst US tragedy” camp.

  109. UKBristolDave Says:

    105 & 106

    With all that in mind, I think the very worst was pure incompetence. For a Government to perform such a crime against its own people would require the mother of all coverups. I don’t think it could happen, especially considering how much US agencies seem to leak - reference to the arrests of suspected bombers in the UK. I’m sure I saw a thread on thinkprogress about this. If not, let me know and I’ll tell you the perspective from the UK. Apparently our security agencies are fuming.

    ukdave - the suspicions range from incompetence to wilful ignorance to deliberate plot. for me I hold with wilful ignorance caused by ideology. if you want to pursue this find your way to the ‘project for the old american century’ website and research their analysis of the ‘project for a new american century’. it reads as the American Mein Kampf. takw careful care to look at the names of the people who have signed it. make sure you Google the phrase ‘new pearl harbor’ (excuse the lost u).

    What you hear about “Bristol Citys” is spot on. Also the name of the Football (sorry, soccer) team I follow. I’m sure you can guess some of the chants we get at away matches…

    Trueblue

    the word in the UK is that the security forces were all over these alleged plotters and looking to see what they could learn. Apparently, when the information was shared with US security forces, they started dropping massive hints that something was happening. Therefore, the UK had to move and arrest before the suspects got spooked, ruining the information gathering opp we had.

    If that’s right, what happened was a disgrace. The “War on terror” isn’t about invading countries that aren’t a threat. It’s about intelligence gathering.


  116. TerrytheTurtle Says:

    ukdave - the ‘pnac’ lays out in cold terms what the war on terror is about and everything the us does is designed for us domestic opinion - sorry to say but the brits are george bush’s fig leaf - nothing more.

    pure incompetence, must be feeling ‘nice’ today. come on. besides the fact that he sat reading the kids about a pet goat he also let ‘hijacked’ planes fly in the no fly zone and circle our skies doing f-16 maneuvers for over 45 min WITHOUT dispatching any interceptors (jets). now that is complete derelicition of duty. so that must have been just incompetence. so, everything regarding 9/11, katrina, economy, enviorment, must be incompetence. so why do they pick and choose what is going to be aired. and when something is found out to be incriminating they take it off the air or put it in a secret holding spot just hoping the public will not find it. that must be what they did with the missile hitting the pentagon(big blue tarp and all the tapes over 20 something if i heard right that was focused on the pentagon. only 2 were shown. and when the missile hit the pentagon it just so hit the only side that was renovated to be made stronger. and if the so called plane was a transatlantic flight why didn’t it blow up into a fireball and burn like the wtc. the evidence is out there. between that, history(the players in the whitehouse and who they represent) and some common sense will tell you that this was in fact the worst state sponsored terror attack on american soil.

    I agree. The only way to be safe in the “War on Terror” is to actually have WMD. The US and the UK have started a arms race which is unprecedented in it’s scope. Believe me, I don’t back this sh1t.

    The worrying thing is that the (informed) population know about the Latin American disgraces and seem to ignore it. This is still why I think 9/11 isn’t a cover up. Enough free press still covers this stuff. Yes Bush robbed Florida. Yes he robbed Ohio 4 years later. I just don’t think it’s possible to have done 9/11 and covered it up.

    Oh, Im sorry. Eventhough US is the actual military superpower, it will never engage a country with nukes. See, as dumb as some US actions seem, they have calculated Iraq situation pretty well. They have the oil, the future contracts to rebuild Iraq, another base in the region, etc. It will never happen that way with China, for example. These guys (Bush Jr. not included) know exactly what they are doing.
    So soldiers are dying, well, its a war. So iraqis are dying by the hundreds, well, iraq…what?

    I’m Bristol City mate. We’re league one, two divisions down from the premiership. I follow two teams in the premiership, Reading and West Ham. I keep an eye on Reading as a old Bristol City player, Leroy Lita, plays up front for them. I lived in London for three years and went to see West Ham Utd quite a bit as well. I hate both Man Utd and Chelsea as does every real Football fan.

    I have to admit all I know about Argentina football is River Plate and Boca Juniors. I’d cut my right arm off to go and see a match between those two.

  158. JFH Says:

    On the 11th of September, 2001, when I heard on the radio that a second plane struck the World Trade Center, I immediately opened telnet and logged in to the MUD that I used to frequent. A lot of the players there were New Yorkers and I wished to offer my support to them and to follow it as closely as possible, despite being an ocean away.

    I have no doubt that the ultimate responsability lies with the hijackers. Even if there’s a money trial back to Osama, it leaves open the possibility that the hijackers contacted Osama with the idea for the attack. Consider also for a moment what difference in impact it would have made if Osama had not released any video’s. In that case it would still be as horrible as it is, but with the video’s come the idea’s of a neatly organized, professional terrorist group that’s able to do the impossible.

    Nevertheless, I would gladly hear the facts around the no-fly zone and the lack of interceptors. What seems to me to turn out to be the likely explanation is that no-one (with sufficient ranks to call the shots) anticipated that the planes would be utilized as weapons, as the traditional hijacking usually ends with the plane landing somewhere and negotiations start to get the hostages freed. With fighters close to a hijacked plane and flying above an urban area the last thing you want is anyone of either side getting nervous and doing something that leads to a plane crash.

    Because Bush and the neocons are generally sloppy, negligent, incompetent and far too transparent in their war-, fear- & hatemongering to actually plan something like some 9/11, let alone execute it. With Bush sitting in that classroom, staring in disbelief, I was reminded to Stalin’s reaction when he heard that the Germans where invading. He ran off to one of his retreats and took more than a couple of days to be persuaded to lead the USSR through the war. It’s also of note to how devoted Bush is to success in Afghanistan, see how many coalition troops are on the ground there.

    As for Clinton, he’s been the only American president during my life-time whom I wouldn’t hesitate to call competent. I know he cannot be reelected, but who cares, let’s have him back!

    Nowrasteh will probably paint a picture that’s historically accurate. Or, rather, accurate enough to make it difficult to spot the lie, the spin and the implications for the intended audience. It’s a tasteless part of the hate campaigns revolving around demonizing your opponent rather than by winning on ones own merits. Tsk!

    Because Bush and the neocons are generally sloppy, negligent, incompetent and far too transparent in their war-, fear- & hatemongering to actually plan something like some 9/11, let alone execute it.

    The Able Danger program knew of several of the hijackers.

    But you won’t hear about that in this trigocomic lie I bet.

    Blame them both

    Although I despise Bush’s actions as president, I blame Clinton and Bush equally for 911.

    The first responsibility of a national leader is to lock down security and then to spread goodwill and happiness so that no one wants to attack your country.

    BTW, the so-called War on Terror is a ludicrous, immoral, counterproductive, overreaction to 911.

    But why not go back to Reagan, and the policies that made Bin Laden what he is today?

    Indeed, if you wish, you can go back to the carving up of the Ottoman Empire at the end of WWII and the creation of the State of Israel and blame everyone involved in those diplomatic discussions!

    How about going back to Moses, who led the invasion into Israel way back when? Or Abraham, who said God told him the land would belong to his descendants forever? Hmmm…I guess that means you’d have to blame God!
