The first lesson is that the highest officials in government did not want us to know the truth.

They already had the story they wanted Americans to believe: Nearly 3,000 people had died, we were assured, because the terrorists turned our liberties against us, had brazenly exploited our open society.

I'd love to buy it, but $29.95 is a bit too high.
That's why God gave us VCR's.
