Kev,
I saw the replay of this. I thought it was pretty good. I actually learned from a really good 2 part series on 9/11 that National Geographic did that Osama's real hate for the U.S. started when the Saudis picked the U.S. to kick Saddam out of Kuwait instead of Bin Laden's militia... whom was successful in getting the Russians out of Afghanastan.
But in reply to Bold Brooklynite's response about saying a few "loonie lefties" are watching it, it really isn't partisan at all. It just states facts about his past and people who knew him and interviewed him over the years. This was no anti-war cry "documentary" or anything like that. It's just about Osama's life and the timeline of it... with no political opinion or agenda added on. It's more like a bio of him.
