?Fahrenheit 9/11? made waves in the weeks leading up to Cannes after the Walt Disney Co. refused to let subsidiary Miramax release the film in the United States because of its political content. Miramax bosses Harvey and Bob Weinstein are negotiating to buy back the film and find another distributor, with hopes of landing it in theaters by Fourth of July weekend.

So, according to the AP, Disney HAS said that the film will not be released due to it's political content.

Go Weinsteins!!

I just find comdies which distort the truth and include some pieces of utter rubbish and then get toted as a documentary as funny.

"Bowling for Columbine" was not a documentary in the classical sense and should not have won an oscar. It was a good movie just not a documentary.

Sorry I haven't responded to all of your posts. Let me try to field some of these questions.

This isn't true. I personally know of one other non-military plane that was flying that day (with permission) which had nothing to do with bin Laden's family

Perhaps you could show us a linik showing that Bush has actually said he wants to ban the flick?

Or is that mere speculation by the author, who I might add..... seems to have drank a little too much before writing the article?



No one is saying that Bush is publicly trying to stop this movie, but if you were Bush would you want the movie to come out? It's common sense to assume that Bush wants to stop the movie.

Clarke Testimony Discredits Moore's 'Fahrenheit 911'

It's a good thing for Bush-bashing conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore that the folks who run the Cannes Film Festival weren't paying much attention to the 9/11 Commission hearings earlier this year.

Otherwise they might have figured out that the central premise of Moore's film "Fahrenheit 911" - that President Bush let Osama bin Laden's relatives escape the U.S. and fly off to Saudi Arabia after the 9/11 attacks - has already been debunked.

What's more, the debunker in question, former White House terrorism czar Richard Clarke, has impeccable Bush-bashing credentials, authoring an entire book claiming that the Bush White House didn't do enough to prevent the 9/11 attacks.

But there's one allegation Clarke doesn't include in his anti-Bush bill of particulars - Moore's charge that he let the bin Ladens get away. Why not?

Because Clarke himself has already admitted to making that decision himself.

"I was making - or coordinating a lot of decisions on 9/11 in the days immediately after," he told the 9/11 Commission in late March, saying that the proposal to authorize the bin Laden fly-out was brought directly to him.

Clarke's testimony turned vague about what happened after that, but his comments to Vanity Fair magazine last August made it crystal clear who approved the bin Ladens' escape.

"My role was to say it can't happen until the FBI approves it," he told writer Craig Unger. "And so the FBI was asked - we had a live connection to the FBI - and we asked the FBI to make sure that they were satisfied that everybody getting on that plane was someone that it was O.K. to leave."

Then Clarke confessed: "And [the FBI] came back and said, yes it was fine with them. So we said fine, let it happen."

Maybe it's not too late for the judges at Cannes to rescind Mr. Moore's "Golden Palm" award for trying to palm off his movie fantasy as a documentary.


Moore sucks.

Your post:
IN the wake of the attacks, the US became a no-fly zone. Moore asks: "Why did Bush allow a private Saudi jet to fly around the US in the days after September 11 to pick up members of the bin Laden family and fly them out of the country without a proper FBI investigation? Might it have been possible that at least one of the 24 bin Ladens would have known something?"

My post:

Bush didn't do it. Clarke did.

I am curious.

No-one has been able to show Bush lied. Yet you claim he's a liar.

Many have shown Moore lied, yet you trumpet him as if he was some type of hero.

Why the double standard?

And please.... no "Bush is the president" crap. A liar is a liar no matter who he is.

Ok, so someone in the Bush administration allowed the Bin Laden's the fly home. Some blame needs to fall on Bush for that. Even if he didn't make that decision, Bush needs to be blamed for allowing so many others to make important decisions for him.

I still haven't seen definitive proof that Moore has lied. People post links showing that he lied and then someone else posts links showing why it wasn't a lie. It's hard to know who to believe. I like Michael Moore because of his good intentions and rebellious spirit, but if he has lied then he needs to be called on it.
