Discover the Secret Right-Wing Network Behind ABC's 9/11 Deception

[NVMojo]

Less than 72 hours before ABC's "The Path to 9/11" is scheduled to air, the network is suddenly under siege. On Tuesday, ABC was forced to concede that "The Path to 9/11" is "a dramatization, not a documentary." The film deceptively invents scenes to depict former President Bill Clinton's handling of the Al Qaeda threat.

Now, ABC claims to be is editing those false sequences to satisfy critics so the show can go on -- even if it still remains a gross distortion of history. And as it does so, ABC advances the illusion that the deceptive nature of "The Path to 9/11" is an honest mistake committed by a hardworking but admittedly fumbling team of well-intentioned Hollywood professionals who wanted nothing less than to entertain America. But this is another Big Lie.

In fact, "The Path to 9/11" is produced and promoted by a well-honed propaganda operation consisting of a network of little-known right-wingers working from within Hollywood to counter its supposedly liberal bias. This is the network within the ABC network. Its godfather is far right activist David Horowitz, who has worked for more than a decade to establish a right-wing presence in Hollywood and to discredit mainstream film and TV production. On this project, he is working with a secretive evangelical religious right group founded by The Path to 9/11's director David Cunningham that proclaims its goal to "transform Hollywood" in line with its messianic vision.

Before The Path to 9/11 entered the production stage, Disney/ABC contracted David Cunningham as the film's director. Cunningham is no ordinary Hollywood journeyman. He is in fact the son of Loren Cunningham, founder of the right-wing evangelical group Youth With A Mission (YWAM). The young Cunningham helped found an auxiliary of his father's group called The Film Institute (TFI), which, according to its mission statement, is "dedicated to a Godly transformation and revolution TO and THROUGH the Film and Televisionindustry." As part of TFI's long-term strategy, Cunningham helped place interns from Youth With A Mission's in film industry jobs "so that they can begin to impact and transform Hollywood from the inside out," according to a YWAM report.

1. What's funny about this...

...is that David Cunningham, while an avowed evangelical Christian, has come under fire from conservatives for being...well, maybe a bit too Christian? One of his previous films, To End All Wars, about a group of WWII American soldiers in a Japanese P.O.W. camp, was denounced by several on the right as being insufficiently "patriotic," offensively pacifist, and too conciliatory toward the Evil Japs.

To reproduce a comment from a wingnut posting on IMDb (spelling and grammar left uncorrected):

Cambell stood up for his men and up for his country. He was doing what was expected from him, fighting for his country, fighting against the enemy. No bowing and groveling at there feet.

Dusty was little more than a traitor and a Jap collaborator and yet the film chooses to make his death appear to be the more morally superior choice. It is just forcing it brand of pacifist coward propagandi down your throat, nothing subtle at all about the way it tries to blindly manipulate people.

:eyes: I guess there's just no pleasing some morans...
