important stuff.

Mylrioe's consistent argument has been that Clinton changed US Policy which previously had as a default setting regarded terrorism as state sponsored, and therefore immediately devoted resources upon such events (e.g. Lockerbie) to look for the sponsor. Only in the Clinton administration was it assumed without investigation (of state sponsorship) that the terrorist act (1993 WTC) was a law enforcement issue. Mylroie makes the point that the Justice Dept./FBI did not attempt to look for evidence of state sponsorship and the CIA / State Department was refused access to evidence that might have helped determined state sponsorship. Such policy induced myopia even left Richard Clarke saying that as to the 1995 supposedly domestic terrorism at Oklahoma City, it was known that Terry Nichols and Ramsey Yusef were in CEBU city (Phillipines) at the same time, and it is also known that before Nichols went there his bombs were ineffective and that when he came back they were devasting. As well it is established Nichols continued to make numerous calls to CEBU on his return, when he had no apparent reason to be calling there, unless it was to talk to Yusef.

Yusef of course was tied directly to the mid 90's plot to simulatenously blow up multiple passenger aircraft.

Mylroie has consistently made the point that abundant evidence exists to conclude Yusef was an Iraqi intell agent. This article for the first time, I have seen, persuasively explains the connection to and rise of Al-Queda.

All of which took place under the protection of the Gorelick Wall and similar policy imposed restrictions.
