.."It was clear to me in my dealings with the CLINTON White House that the CLINTON Administration NEVER intended to do anything about Terrorism in the 1990's" =

We musn't forget that the Clinton administration did do some very superficial and revealing things...they wrote up a detailed report on global terrorism, including the names, dirty deeds and potential weapons caches as well as locations of terrorist groups on a fancy webpage and gave lectures at Universities and think tanks....so we can all be sure that the Clinton administration knew that the terrorist threat for the US was widespread and serious, which damns them even more for their lack of action.

Then there is this Clinton defining moment:
Clinton's parting gift to Bush? Poking the Taliban hornet's nest...and running:


Today, the United Nations removed all its remaining relief workers from the country, fearing a backlash from the Taliban, who will be almost completely isolated diplomatically when the resolution takes effect in 30 days, a grace period during which the Taliban could avoid sanctions by meeting the Council's demands. , Dec. 20th...2000.
Why did Clinton wait until Dec. 19th, 2000 to push the UN for tougher sanctions against the Taliban? The specific threat was for the Taliban to hand over Osama Bin Laden, or else. Now, Clinton knew this would anger not only the Taliban, but their terrorist pals across the world. The UN understood the danger...they pulled their own people out the same day, Dec. 20th, the new threat was issued. The electoral college voted for President Bush on Dec. 18th. On Dec. 19th, Clinton went to the UN to push for tougher sanctions, on Dec. 20th the UN reluctantly issued the threat...to go into effect in 30 days.. Jan. 20th, 2001, President Bush's inaugeration day.

What kind of a man, knowing the international threats, knowing the pressures of the Presidency would choose personal vengence over national security?
