It's always good to get both sides.

also, on Bush having connections with Bin Laden...
True, but only to a degree convenient for MM to air.
I bet he never mentions that Osama has basically been publicly disowned by his entire family. The Bin Laden family is a very public one in Saudi Arabia. Yes, Bush has met with them and knows them. Any US politician with REAL political connections [sorry Kerry] to Saudi Arabia has probably met them, too. Dateline or 60 minutes (one of them, can't remember) did a story on the Bin Ladens and interviewed many of them. I believe that some of them even live in the US. They are (publicly at least, privately who knows) very pro-American.
So, MM says that since Bush knows his family he is connected to Osama (and the conclusion MM wants people to believe is that Bush and Osama are buddies in a secret society). If F911 follows even a similar logic style as BFC, it should be entertaining at least. BFC jumps around, blames columbine on health care and welfare, then closes with a nagging of Heston. OMFG.

Personally I think that the media in most countries is very biased in its reporting of most news, I also think that MM is very biased in the "reporting" of his own views. I do, however, think that a lot of people (including many in here, judging by their posts in this thread) need to be far more open minded and need to question what they see on the news, rather than blindly accept what CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC et al., have to say on the issues.
In that respect I think that the MM films are worthwhile watching just to put the other side of the argument across so that people start to question what they are seeing/reading/hearing ......
just my $0.02
