“George W. Bush: The 9/11 Interview” will debut on Aug. 28.
Bush said Sept. 11 will be a day on the calendar “like Pearl Harbor Day. For those of us who lived through it, it’ll be a day we never forget.”
The two-day interview by the National Geographic crew started the day after President Barack Obama announced the killing of Sept. 11 mastermind Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan. Bush says the news made him “grateful.”
Bush says: “I didn’t feel any great sense of happiness or jubilation. I felt a sense of closure. And I felt a sense of gratitude that justice had been done.”
