acrificed if political freedom is to be preserved. [An expansion of the government’s role in the business world] would cramp and cripple the mental and spiritual energies of our people.

For a hundred and fifty years liberalism has found its true spirit in the American system, not in the European system."

United 93 movie vs real life
denpristay [2]

Answer:

It was very realistic

Explanation:

So the movie was based on the flight that occured on 9/11, and the flight wsa United 93. I'm not really sure of all the details of the real event, but I did see a lot of truths. One thing that stood out to me was a conspiracy that had been floating around for awhile.

So there were orders to shoot the plane down to prevent it from flying into the White House, but the plane "crashed" into the field.

Here's the thing, with this big situation, don't you think that if fighter piltowere given orders to shoot down a plane that was heading for the White HOuse, they would have done it. They say that passengers on the plane overtook the coockpit, but in my opinion, I think it was shot down. It makes sense.

Hope this helps!!
