I used to get irritated with people calling 9/11 and inside job, referring to George W. Bush. However, if you think of Slick Willie instead, then it easily could have been. There was a series of terrorist attacks on the U.S, during his tenure including the Murrah Bldg in OKC and TWA flight 800 as well as the first WTC, the embassies in Africa, the USS Cole, etc., and Slick did nothing. He had the opportunity to get Bin Laden himself but conveniently was unavailable to give the go ahead. He also turned down Sudan’s offer to turn him over. It would be easy for Bin Laden to interpret all that as a go ahead himself.
Slick has never, to my knowledge, been called to answer for himself on all that.
Slick Willie was using the first 2 you mentioned to go after the Patriot Movement. TWA 800 he could not allow to be solved because he would be blamed, WTC is similar It highlighted his dereliction of duty, the Embasies in Africa and the USS Cole simply would have exposed his ineptness.
But yes all were on his watch. His handlers knew how to dodge the responsibility. Just like they dodged exposure of his involvement in the Contra Support (for money). Happened. (note- I was a strong supporter of the Contra Effort and felt the Bolen Amendment was treasonous.)
G H W Bush knows Bill Clinton very well. The other players in that episode were Seth Ward, the Mc Dougals, Vince Foster, Web Hubble. And a cast of others.
Then we must not forget Slick’s Serbia/Bosnia Wag the Dog.
All the while he was afraid to offend the Muzzies.
And Yes I loathed Slick Willie and Der Hilderbeast.
