http://bayimg.com/NaJHOaACnBased on the events of the 1993 World Trade Center attack, this HBO film does a remarkable job tracing the efforts of the Intelligence Community to gather information both prior to and after the attack. It is largely a tale of incompetence and misplaced priorities, as an informant had made it perfectly clear in advance that the attack was coming. Most chilling of all is the last scene of the film, where terrorist bombmaker Ramzi Yousef is being flown back to the United States to face trial, and his helicopter flies over the World Trade Center. Looking down with grim determination, he vows “Next time, we’ll bring them both down.”



Of course, four years after this film was made came the events of September 11th, 2001. A few folks at that time dimly remembered that there had been a movie about this on HBO a few years back. HBO, for whatever reason, has never since 9/11 shown this movie again, and has only just finally released it on DVD.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993_World_Trade_Center_bombingThe 1993 World Trade Center bombing occurred on February 26, 1993, when a car bomb was detonated below the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. The 1,500 lb (680 kg) urea nitrate–hydrogen gas enhanced device[1] was intended to knock the North Tower (Tower One) into the South Tower (Tower Two), bringing both towers down and killing thousands of people. It failed to do so, but did kill six people and injured 1,042.



The attack was planned by a group of conspirators including Ramzi Yousef, Mahmud Abouhalima, Mohammad Salameh, Nidal Ayyad, Abdul Rahman Yasin and Ahmad Ajaj. They received financing from Khaled Shaikh Mohammed, Yousef's uncle. In March 1994, four men were convicted of carrying out the bombing: Abouhalima, Ajaj, Ayyad and Salameh. The charges included conspiracy, explosive destruction of property and interstate transportation of explosives. In November 1997, two more were convicted: Yousef, the mastermind behind the bombings, and Eyad Ismoil, who drove the truck carrying the bomb.
