"We did an incredible amount to get things started in dealing with this war on terrorism," former secretary of State Madeleine Albright says.

Incredibly little, that is.

Also, a correction:
France would not even allow US planes to land for refueling.

It's not that France wouldn't allow US planes to land for refueling; they wouldn't even allow overflight of our planes going from England, from whence the attacks were launched, to Libya. As a result, they had to go way the heck out west around Spain/Portugal, significantly complicating the mission.

Still laugh at Sam Kinison's version of why one of the bombs came close to hitting the French Embassy:

"Maybe if the crews wouldn't have been so tired having to fly around France, their aim would have been better."

IMHO, UBL paid off Clinton. Either cash or a sex slave. Why else would he be out of the country
(not that I'm complaining) so much?

Albright is lying, as is everyone from the former administration who tries to pretend that terrorism was a priority. Too much information has been out there saying the opposite by insiders. Clinton was not interested in the subject, unless of course, they were the ones carrying it out against their enemies.
