This Report, while worth reading should not be considered in isolation as the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, as some people would like us to.
There is a large and growing body of evidence supported by an even larger and faster growing group of ordinary and extra-ordinary Americans that points with crystal clarity towards a radically different view of the attacks of 9/11, who caused them and why. Dissecting the official report, and the government's own version of events, leads to more questions than answers, and uncovers a considerable catalogue of half truths, ommissions and even blatant outright fiction.
Readers of the Commission's official Report who consider themselves to be of fair and balanced minds will naturally want to make themselves aware of 'the other side of the story'. It is not unpatriotic to consider these things carefully. It is patriotic. I am not talking about anything pro-Islamist, or anti-Bush. Far from it.
Merely that Americans should consider the questions raised by the fact that the official version of events, and the official report, are radically different in many different places to the actual recorded history of 9/11 and the events that day.
Readers should at least make themselves aware of the eminant and respected theologian David Ray Griffin's 2 books, also to be found on Amazon, 'The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11' (4.5 out of 5 over 136 reviews) and 'The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions'.

This "report" is a disgrace. Nay, an outrage. How dare this comission release such a half-baked excuse for a report. For shame.
Do not expect to gain any accurate knowlege of the atrocities that were committed on 9-11 from this compilation of hearsay.
Some examples:
- WTC building no. 7 is not even mentioned. Yes, you read correctly: IT IS NOT EVEN MENTIONED.
- Operation Vigilant Guardian. Again: It is not even mentioned.
- According to this commission, finding out who bankrolled the attacks is "of little practical importance".
I could go on like this all night, but I won't. Read David Ray Griffin's "The 9/11 Commission Report: Ommissions and distortions" and you will begin to understand.
That said, I would consider this "report" well worth reading. It is going to be considered a classic example of state progaganda in the future.

I have been using the 9/11 commission report as the centrepiece for an essay i am currently constructing for my History course. After doing a bit of background reading, getting hold of those for and against this report, i am afraid to say that this 'report' is nothing but a narrative history of 9/11 and is heavily propagandised.
Please, i urge you to read some articles from the Journal of 9/11 studies, some of David Ray Griffin's few books on this subject and read further around the 'conspiracy theroies' surrounding 9/11. This report is a necessity for background reading into 9/11, but it would be foolhardy to take it as gospel truth. I give it a two star review only because it's a must-read on the subject of 9/11 and, overall, it is clear, concise and well written. Nothing more.
