Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize
I have to post this. I did not want to, but I was challenged in one of my recent posts about OBL and his failing Kidneys. Here goes:
Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize -LA TIMES December 5, 2001 - MANSOOR IJAZ :
President Clinton and his national security team ignored several opportunities to capture Osama bin Laden and his terrorist associates, including one as late as last year. I know because I negotiated more than one of the opportunities.
From 1996 to 1998, I opened unofficial channels between Sudan and the Clinton administration. I met with officials in both countries, including Clinton, U.S. National Security Advisor Samuel R. "Sandy" Berger and Sudan's president and intelligence chief. President Omar Hassan Ahmed Bashir, who wanted terrorism sanctions against Sudan lifted, offered the arrest and extradition of Bin Laden and detailed intelligence data about the global networks constructed by Egypt's Islamic Jihad, Iran's Hezbollah and the Palestinian Hamas.
Among those in the networks were the two hijackers who piloted commercial airliners into the World Trade Center.
The silence of the Clinton administration in responding to these offers was deafening.As an American Muslim and a political supporter of Clinton, I feel now, as I argued with Clinton and Berger then, that their counter-terrorism policies fueled the rise of Bin Laden from an ordinary man to a Hydra-like monster.Realizing the growing problem with Bin Laden, Bashir sent key intelligence officials to the U.S. in February 1996.The Sudanese offered to arrest Bin Laden and extradite him to Saudi Arabia or, barring that, to "baby-sit" him--monitoring all his activities and associates.
But Saudi officials didn't want their home-grown terrorist back where he might plot to overthrow them.In May 1996, the Sudanese capitulated to U.S. pressure and asked Bin Laden to leave, despite their feeling that he could be monitored better in Sudan than elsewhere.Bin Laden left for Afghanistan, taking with him Ayman Zawahiri, considered by the U.S. to be the chief planner of the Sept. 11 attacks; Mamdouh Mahmud Salim, who traveled frequently to Germany to obtain electronic equipment for Al Qaeda; Wadih El-Hage, Bin Laden's personal secretary and roving emissary, now serving a life sentence in the U.S. for his role in the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Tanzania and Kenya; and Fazul Abdullah Mohammed and Saif Adel, also accused of carrying out the embassy attacks.
Some of these men are now among the FBI's 22 most-wanted terrorists.The two men who allegedly piloted the planes into the twin towers, Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al-Shehhi, prayed in the same Hamburg mosque as did Salim and Mamoun Darkazanli, a Syrian trader who managed Salim's bank accounts and whose assets are frozen.Important data on each had been compiled by the Sudanese.But U.S. authorities repeatedly turned the data away, first in February 1996; then again that August, when at my suggestion Sudan's religious ideologue, Hassan Turabi, wrote directly to Clinton; then again in April 1997, when I persuaded Bashir to invite the FBI to come to Sudan and view the data; and finally in February 1998, when Sudan's intelligence chief, Gutbi al-Mahdi, wrote directly to the FBI.
Please, if you're going to attack this administration on the topic of not capturing OBL, start with the previous administration and work your way up from the seven years that first attack against the Towers in NYC took place. Morons! Hate Mail and classless comments forthcoming!

Nice try...
Let's see...Los Alamos, USS Cole, Khobar Towers, etc...we were at War with terror all the way back to the first tower hits on his watch and the Clintonistas did nothing, nothing. Serbs were saved, maybe, but even OBL told ABC he could care less about those Muslims. It's not news to me you want to defend Clinton. But in the wake of 9/11 in a speech at Georgetown University while we were still counting our dead, Clinton chided US citizens who were descended "from various European lineages" that they were "not blameless," and that America’s past involvement in slavery should humble them as they confronted their attackers. Nice try...you lose!

Clinton could have had bin Laden delivered on a silver platter and turned it down.
If you ever see a copy of the book by Buzz Patterson "Dereliction of Duty" buy it:

Buzz was the guy carrying the nuclear football, always at Clinton's side. He describes one Clinton visit to a Virginia golf tournament. Sandy "stuff your socks" Berger tried to get him on the phone for 15 minutes to get authority to strike bin Laden. Clinton waved off the call. When he finally did get around to it, it was too late.

Monsoor Ijaz is a complete fraud.
Ijaz goes on and on about how Clinton was "offered" bin Laden. At the time Ijaz had a lot of money invested in oil in Sudan. Ijaz basically lied to the the Clinton administration and claimed he could turn over bin Laden. Half the administration laughed at him because he knew he was full of shit. In reality, he just didn't want Clinton to bomb Sudan (as he did after the African embassy attacks) because it would hurt his pocketbook.

cold pillow,
That is a pretty impressive list from the Clinton years. Do you have any links to substantiate it (other than the Washington Post one you put in the previous post)? I'm not trying to be ugly about it, just genuinely curious. I've only heard a few of those things you cited. And given Clinton's penchant for fluffing up his legacy, I'm surprised we're not hearing much more about that list.
