| The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation by Twelve So, was it an inside job? |
| Excellent book revealing the manipulation and control of the 9/11 commission by the Bush White House. So if the Report is a lie, does that mean the whole official explanation is false too? |
| The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation by Twelve An extraordinary work of investigative journalism |
| Absolutely required reading. Removes any doubt as to the duplicity of the Bush Administration with regard to covering up the incompetence of Rice, Cheney and Bush leading up to 9/11 and the total mismanagement of foreign policy thereafter. Remarkably well written and shocking; even after all we already know. |
| The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation by Twelve Captivating history |
In reading any book about a major historical event, you wonder about the motives of the author and his or her ability to competently address more than one perspective. A few chapters into reading this book I felt strongly that the author made an immense effort to be fair to the members and staff of the commission, without shirking his obligation to state the consequences of the decisions made about staffing, subpoenas, interviews and the goal itself.
I am deeply disappointed that the commission did not begin its work with issuing subpoenas to the White House, NSA, CIA, FBI and other relevant entities. In fact, one of the individuals considered for the position of counsel for the commission told the commission emphatically that the only way to get the information they needed was to subpoena it. This advice was disregarded and the commission ended up hiring an attorney who was much less aggressive in obtaining the needed information. This and the failure to assign a team to review all the information made available by the NSA appear to the be the biggest mistakes made by the commission's leadership and I think they will one day be judged harshly by historians as a result.

| I am not a lawyer. I am a doctor. This was a very pleasant, informative read. I feel indebted to the author. |
| The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation by Twelve Frightening and memorable |
When we understand the size and clumsiness of our institutions, when we evaluate the inadequacies of our appointed and elected officials, when we understand the compromises of our political system and our desire to make everyone happy, blame no one, only then do we realize that we are doomed to failure.
God help us. |
