United 93 Gets it Right: Hero’s Dad

David Beamer, the father of the reputed leader of the resistance against the hijackers of United 93, Todd Beamer, which crashed in a Pennsylvania farm pasture before the hijackers could slam it into the White House, says the new United 93 movie gets it right, with neither smarmy patriotism nor multicultist guilt. A snippet:

There are those who question the timing of this project and the painful memories it evokes. Clearly, the film portrays the reality of the attack on our homeland and its terrible consequences. Often we attend movies to escape reality and fantasize a bit. In this case and at this time, it is appropriate to get a dose of reality about this war and the real enemy we face. It is not too soon for this story to be told, seen and heard. But it is too soon for us to become complacent. It is too soon for us to think of this war in only national terms. We need to be mindful that this enemy, who made those holes in our landscape and caused the deaths of some 3,000 of our fellow free people, has a vision to personally kill or convert each and every one of us. This film reminds us that this war is personal.

UPDATE: While we’re on the subject of parents, Warren Kinsella puts the coffin controversy for Canadian troops in Afghanistan into proper context.

  1. United 93 gets it right

    Can it be? Is there really hope for Hollywood? Well, having looked at The Wall Street Journal and Debbie Schlussel’s reviews of Paul Greengrass’ new movie adaptation (via the brand new Hot Air podcasting site co-founded by Michelle Malkin), I think i…

  2. All this time the conspiracy crowds have toured the radio shows claiming the plane was empty and NORAD flew it by remote control, then BUSH was behind it because he ordered a F-15 to shoot it down to destry the evidence.

    Why even one guy insist that 6 of the 9/11 hijackers are still alive and have done interviews which the Zionist controlled media in America can’t report to the American Public.
    I’m still waiting to hear where Barbara Olsen is, her plane was also part of the Bush/Jew plan to invade Iraq
    and get the Oil to keep prices down ( wow, thank god for that, we still have cheap gas) .
    The really annoying things is that once again the CBC would not mention Terrorits or Muslim when covering the Mousoui conviction and United 93 Movie.

    So that’s it folks, the 19 hijackers are born liars and they were the self-professed Muslims they calimed to be.
    But does this mean all Muslims are liars after they murder people?
    Interesting paradox , kind of a catch-22 that there are 1.2 billion Muslims around the World, but if they kill anyone for Allah and Muhammed as in the Quran, then they’re not Muslims.

  3. Hey Robert, isn’t it funny how the CBC has no problem with using words like “fundamentalist” or “scary” when they are talking about coservativism?
