Inside 9/11 is a three-part television documentary film produced by Towers Productions that premiered on August 21 and August 22, 2005, on the National Geographic Channel. The program covers the September 11, 2001 attack, the events that led to it, and its aftermath. The first part consisted of examining, event by event, the build-up towards September 11. The second part consisted of the events of 9/11 itself and the aftermath. Experts and eyewitnesses provide their accounts of the attacks, and the events are covered in chronological order.

Inside 9/11 was the highest-rated program ever on the National Geographic Channel and was nominated for an Emmy in 2006.[1][2]

On May 7, 2011, the third part was released with details on the death of Osama bin Laden and the rise of attacks inspired by other leaders such as Anwar al-Awlaki, who is suspected of preparing three of the 9/11 hijackers in San Diego and Virginia.

Featured details

In MacDill Air Force Base, a Military Committee is reviewing an unusual chart known as Able Danger, which allowed Mohamed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi to travel across the U.S. without being caught because they hold valid U.S. Visas and may be off Intelligence Gathering by the military and the FBI.

Zacarias Moussaoui, the alleged "twentieth hijacker", is in U.S. custody for the foreseeable future as he is arrested on an immigration charge and the role to fly a plane into the White House if not being arrested four weeks prior to 9/11. He is the only person to date to be charged in relation to the 9/11 attacks.
