Levity, a film I mentioned a few days ago, was a bit of a disappointment. It had promising prospects but a lackluster finish. It's worth seeing though because of several memorable characters and quotes.
Tonight I watched a documentary called 9/11. Other than Band of Brothers, this is perhaps the most powerful film I've seen in years. I'll let you read the particulars in the link above. It was very interesting to watch the horror of terrorism from the perspective of more than two years later. Does anyone deny that people like this wouldn't rejoice if another 9/11 slaughter would occur. America was attacked before we attacked Iraq. I am constantly amazed that many people don't think that we are at war, or that this war is unjustified, or that their is no relationship between Islamo-fascist butchers in Fallujah and those that murdered thousands in NY and DC. Watching this documentary, which did not say a word about the terrorists, nevertheless was a brutal reminder of what is at stake in Iraq, Afghanistan and globally as the U.S. and it's true allies confront Islamic terror. I strongly urge you to watch it if you haven't seen it, not only to honor the fallen but to remember the injustice and dwell on the lingering possibility of more acts of murderous cowardice. Apparently the 9/11 commission is more interested in political posturing and scapegoating than really trying to prevent another attack. Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
