bin Laden's not the only thing bill clinton lost

by Mia T, 6.22.04

In an effort to counter the growing perception that President Clinton forfeited America's best chance to arrest Osama bin Laden before the 9/11 attacks, "CBS Evening News" anchorman Dan Rather aired new footage Monday night of Clinton strenuously denying that the government of Sudan ever offered to extradite the al Qaida mastermind.

In a segment initially edited out of Sunday night's "60 Minutes" broadcast, Clinton tells Rather, "To the best of my knowledge it is not true that we were ever offered [bin Laden] by the Sudanese, even though they later claimed it. I think it's total bull." In more remarks deleted from the original broadcast, the ex-president claimed:

"Mr. Absurabi, the head of the Sudanese government, was a buddy of bin Laden's. They were business partners together. There was no way in the wide world this guy who was in business with bin Laden in Sudan was going to give him up to us."

eems bill lost his supposed ol' touch along with bin Laden.

Exculpation by business partner? I mean, gimme a break.

Surely clinton, of all people, knows that after the spouse, the business partner is the prime suspect in any hit. (Need I say "Jim McDougal?")


DON'T BELIEVE YOUR LYING EARS (the perjurer returns)

The real question before us is not whether clinton lost bin Laden, and "lost" him purposefully and repeatedly; the record on that is clear.

The real question is why.

Why, despite bin Laden's repeated acts of war against America and repeated declarations of war against America, did this legacy-obsessed president repeatedly and purposefully refuse to take -- and take out -- bin Laden? (Don't be fooled by clinton's ineffectual, curiously-timed pin pricks that were engineered to fail.)

At the time of the first WTC bombing by the same terrorists in '93, terrorism was in its incipient stage and stoppable; defeating terrorism would have secured clinton's legacy for all time. Yet, bill clinton didn't even visit the site; he quickly 'moved on' and urged the country to 'move on,' too.

So the question before us is not "whether" but "why." Why did clinton refuse to take on terrorism?

Was it simple stupidity and lack of vision?

Or was it also that familiar clinton demagogic refrain: cowardice, infantilism, megalomania... and the Nobel Peace Prize?

Which brings us to clinton's book....


THE BIG STORY

The big story emerging from bill clinton's book is not that the book is small and vacuous and dishonest and self-indulgent and undisciplined and incoherent and "eye-crossingly dull," like its author.

It's not even that 'the paper of record' has declared it so.

The big story coming out of bill clinton's embarrassingly anachronistic little book is this:
If we are to prevail, if we are to win this war on terror, we must never, ever again elect anyone remotely like bill clinton.

"The Sudanese wanted America to start dealing with them again. They released him [bin Laden].

At the time, '96, he had committed no crime against America, so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on which to hold him, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against America.

So I pleaded with the Saudis to take him, 'cause they could have; but they thought it was a hot potato. They didn't and that's how he wound up in Afghanistan."

COMMENT:
The above inculpatory remark by the impeached erstwhile ersatz prez is illustrative of
the synergy of profound psychological dysfunction and rube arrogance rooted in stupidity.
That remark is his legacy's death knell.

Clinton's failure to grasp the opportunity to unravel increasingly organized extremists, coupled with Berger's assessments of their potential to directly threaten the U.S., represents one of the most serious foreign policy failures in American history.

Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize
MANSOOR IJAZ
December 5, 2001

A Fish Rots from the Head

Investor's Business Daily

 

Ijaz, an admitted Clinton supporter who helped negotiate these opportunities to nab bin Laden, said, "The silence of the Clinton administration in responding to these offers was deafening."

Ijaz says that three months before bin Laden's men blew up the USS Cole in Yemen, he "brought the White House another plausible offer to deal with bin Laden, by then known to be involved in the embassy bombings (in Tanzania and Kenya)... But senior Clinton officials sabotaged the offer."

Clinton's apparent boredom with vital information extended beyond Sudanese intelligence officers to his own intelligence officers. His first CIA director, James Woolsey, couldn't get a meeting with Clinton in the two years he served. Woolsey left the Clinton administration disgusted with its slovenly approach to national security. ...

To hear Clinton now say "We must do more to reduce the pool of potential terrorists" is thus beyond farce. He had numerous opportunities to reduce that pool, and he blew it.

The pool, in fact, grew larger on Clinton's watch, as he spent his final days giving pardons to drug dealers, Puerto Rican terrorists and Marc Rich, a fugitive who topped America's most-wanted list.

NEW AUDIO!

In this light, Clinton's order to the CIA that it not use "unsavory characters" to collect information pushes irony to its outer limits.

INTERVIEW Osama bin Laden

(may 1998)

 

In the first part of this interview which occurred in May 1998, a little over two months before the U.S. embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, Osama bin Laden answers questions posed to him by some of his followers at his mountaintop camp in southern Afghanistan. In the latter part of the interview, ABC reporter John Miller is asking the questions.

 

Describe the situation when your men took down the American forces in Somalia.

 

After our victory in Afghanistan and the defeat of the oppressors who had killed millions of Muslims, the legend about the invincibility of the superpowers vanished. Our boys no longer viewed America as a superpower. So, when they left Afghanistan, they went to Somalia and prepared themselves carefully for a long war. They had thought that the Americans were like the Russians, so they trained and prepared. They were stunned when they discovered how low was the morale of the American soldier. America had entered with 30,000 soldiers in addition to thousands of soldiers from different countries in the world. As I said, our boys were shocked by the low morale of the American soldier and they realized that the American soldier was just a paper tiger. He was unable to endure the strikes that were dealt to his army, so he fled, and America had to stop all its bragging and all that noise it was making in the press after the Gulf War in which it destroyed the infrastructure and the milk and dairy industry that was vital for the infants and the children and the civilians and blew up dams which were necessary for the crops people grew to feed their families. Proud of this destruction, America assumed the titles of world leader and master of the new world order. After a few blows, it forgot all about those titles and rushed out of Somalia in shame and disgrace, dragging the bodies of its soldiers. America stopped calling itself world leader and master of the new world order, and its politicians realized that those titles were too big for them and that they were unworthy of them. I was in Sudan when this happened. I was very happy to learn of that great defeat that America suffered, so was every Muslim....

 

The American people, by and large, do not know the name bin Laden, but they soon likely will. Do you have a message for the American people?

 

 

I say to them that they have put themselves at the mercy of a disloyal government, and this is most evident in Clinton's administration....

Lopez: In sum, how many times did Bill Clinton lose bin Laden?

Miniter: Here's a rundown. The Clinton administration:

1. Did not follow-up on the attempted bombing of Aden marines in Yemen.

2. Shut the CIA out of the 1993 WTC bombing investigation, hamstringing their effort to capture bin Laden.

3. Had Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, a key bin Laden lieutenant, slip through their fingers in Qatar.

4. Did not militarily react to the al Qaeda bombing in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

5. Did not accept the Sudanese offer to turn bin Laden.

6. Did not follow-up on another offer from Sudan through a private back channel.

7. Objected to Northern Alliance efforts to assassinate bin Laden in Afghanistan.

8. Decided against using special forces to take down bin Laden in Afghanistan.

9. Did not take an opportunity to take into custody two al Qaeda operatives involved in the East African embassy bombings. In another little scoop, I am able to show that Sudan arrested these two terrorists and offered them to the FBI. The Clinton administration declined to pick them up and they were later allowed to return to Pakistan.

10. Ordered an ineffectual, token missile strike against a Sudanese pharmaceutical factory.

11. Clumsily tipped off Pakistani officials sympathetic to bin Laden before a planned missile strike against bin Laden on August 20, 1998. Bin Laden left the camp with only minutes to spare.

12-14. Three times, Clinton hesitated or deferred in ordering missile strikes against bin Laden in 1999 and 2000.

15. When they finally launched and armed the Predator spy drone plane, which captured amazing live video images of bin Laden, the Clinton administration no longer had military assets in place to strike the archterrorist.

16. Did not order a retaliatory strike on bin Laden for the murderous attack on the USS Cole.

A moment of silence please, for Jim McDougal. One thing I remember McDougal said, (no doubt to clear her conscious)....that Jim cut her loose and told Susan, do, say, whatever you have to.

And lest we forget, here's a good brief bio of St. Susan:

"Susan McDougal, ever-incarcerated Whitewater figure, was charged with embezzlement and tax fraud in a case unrelated to the Arkansas land deal. The latest charges were brought by conductor Zubin Mehta and his wife, for whom McDougal was bookkeeper and personal assistant from 1989 to 1992.

After serving 18 months in prison for refusing to answer questions about President and Mrs. Clinton before the Whitewater grand jury, McDougal immediately began a 90-day detention at home for fraud in the Whitewater dealings. Although some felt her imprisonment for sticking to her principles in the Clinton investigation gave her a saintly aura, the embezzlement charges knocked her off the pedestal. Ex-husband Jim McDougal, also a key Whitewater figure, made headlines in March when he died in prison due to heart failure. President Clinton pardoned Susan McDougal shortly before he left office in 2001."

"60 Minutes" declined NewsMax.com's offer to share its recording of Clinton admitting he had turned down the Sudanese offer, and instead let Clinton's denial stand unchallenged.

SeeBS is not even faking it anymore, not for years now. I have been saying that the lamestream media is the greatest enemy of this country for 10 years at least. What would the Founders say about the "PRESS" today.

In an age of 24 hour news, isn't it somewhat ironic that with a geometric increase in information there is at least an arithmetic increase in the ignorance of the public. Disinformation and outright lying win in this country. What a shame.

The leftist big lie is precisely why I have argued that Bush, Cheney et al. must have an aggressive rapid response team. In this 24-hr-news sound-bite culture, yesterday's lie takes root before dawn.

The Bush camp has failed miserably here... and it continues to fail. When the Bushies finally do (occasionally) respond, their answers are much too oblique and genteel. (Most vices are committed very genteelly.)

The Bushies must understand that this campaign is not an exercise in personal loyalty or achievement; it is a collective loyalty to the Constitution. Bush swore to preserve, protect and defend it.

They must understand that the war we are waging extends to the Left, that America's defeat here is America's defeat everywhere.
