Someone please explain why they say Clinton did nothing when his administration thwarted the attacks that were planned against the UN Headquarters, the FBI building, the Israeli embassy in Washington, the LA and Boston airports, the Lincoln and Holland tunnels, the George Washington Bridge, a plot against the US embassy in Albania, killing the Pope, and to blow up 12 US jets simultaneously. He tripled the counterterrorism budget for the FBI and doubled the funding overall, rolled up al Qaeda cells in more than twenty countries, created a top-level national security post to coordinate all federal counterterrism activity. After the embassy bombings, Clinton issued a presidential directive authorizing the assassination of Osama. Then after the attack on the USS Cole, Clinton put Richard Clarke in charge of coming up with a comprehensive plan to destroy al Qaeda, which was completed a couple weeks before Bush’s inauguration, which Bush obviously ignored. But they blame Clinton instead??
