This to me is still the most powerful of the 9/11 videos. But do you remember when this was first shown a short time after 9/11 so many people asking, "Are you going to watch it?" as if it would be wrong somehow to witness what these monsters did to our country. As if it was somehow disrespectful to witness what the people at WTC went through and the last minutes of our hero responders. Maybe that was the first sign, along with Bush's "religion of peace" gaff, that something was going to go terribly wrong in our level of resolve. "Are you going to watch it?" Hell yes. I want it "everlastingly burned into my memory" to quote another witness to cruelty and horror.
