Turning Point: Le 11 septembre et la guerre contre le terrorisme

Pretty extensive history, starting with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 and ending with the Americans leaving in 2021. Some political figures and veterans who were involved comment. Consequences of the war and political decisions are discussed.

Overall this documentary was substantial and well-researched as far as I can tell. One remark: I wish it would have covered some backstory on the pilots and their radicalisation in Germany.

Everyone knows where they were and what they were doing when the unthinkable happened on 9/11/01. Certain scenes/clips/stories in this series that I hadn't necessarily seen before in the media brought me to tears... and right back to how WE felt THAT day.

Albeit a bit biased (IMHO) considering the politics, but I'm not biased on politics either; I just felt like it was leaning more on one side and not the other. Regardless, this series is informative and well worth the watch.

I have to say I cannot remember the last time I have been this touched by a documentary. It tells a story starting with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and ending with the Americans leaving after 20 years of war.

The footage from September 11 was truly harrowing, the interviews were interesting and very informative. I was especially touched by the veterans.

Turning Point is probably the most comprehensive documentary about 9/11 and the aftermath. You will listen to a lot of different voices in this documentary and not just "the experts". Its subject coverage is also very wide. Humanitarian, political, economic, military, psychological; quite many aspects of the event is being discussed during the 6 episodes. Satisfying and not overwhelming. Great project!

A really in-depth and thorough view of 9/11. I think so many of us have seen documentaries or at least coverage on September 11 but not so much the aftermath and 19 years of war. Astounding but somewhat conceivable at the same time how Congress only had 1 person challenge the decision to give Bush an open mandate to declare a broad war on Terror. Hindsight is also 20/20. It shows how critical foreign policy is and how no robust strategy or plan has emerged over 19 years. I found this a very sobering documentary, there were no winners in this. The world paid a dear price with this deadly attack and its plagued us in various forms and countries ever since.
