It is clear that Bush had intel of Bin Ladens plans to attack America. Why did he ignore this?

At least Clinton tried to get him by bombing his camps. Republicans flipped out over the bombings.

Bush was warned on August 6, 2001 that Bin Laden was determined to strike according to FBI memo given to him on that date which Condi Rice confirmed in the 9/11 investigations. Bush was in Crawford on vacation at that time, clearing brush. Bush took no extraordinary precautions and remained on vacation until September.
Bush ignored the warning because he wanted to use an attack as the reason to go into Afghanistan to get Unocal's pipeline through and to go into Iraq to take their oil and OPEC seat.

sometimes there truly is not any thank you to appreciate what truly happened, as contained while it comes to 9/11. Any helping information would have been set up via a 0.33 social gathering responsible Osama Bin laden interior the hopes that he would combat lower back and further soil us of a of america's acceptance and endanger extra American lives. us of a of america has made extremely some enemies with the aid of out historic previous, and introduced extremely some lives, and persons do no longer constantly forgive. an elementary grudge over a lost love you may grow to be an out lash of anger, or a "terrorist assault." us of a of america has made errors interior the previous, yet you may no longer exchange the previous and so which you will desire to concentration on the destiny - the thank you to additionally make it extra acceptable - truly of attempting responsible somebody. you may desire to circulate on at permit bygones be bygones. we don't stay in a suitable worldwide and for this reason, there'll constantly be people who prefer to reason chaos and mayhem for a multiplicity of motives. in case you frequently concentration on punishing people than you plenty times overlook stable women and men persons who deserve extra acceptance than a terrorist who's getting punished.

Bush was in office for eight months prior to 9/11. Clinton was actually offered Bin Laden when he was in custody in the Sudan during his administration and turned it down saying it would just **** him off (9/11 report). People who try to blame one or the other for terrorism are friends of the terrorists and not very good citizens. Bush hatred is no different than Clinton hatred or Bin Laden's hatred for America. You are all the same...haters. Political extremists are just political trash and thank god they X each other out at the ballot box.

Are you guys still harping on that old conspiracy theory? I see no proof to your fabricated, hysterical and paranoid theory. It happened, and Clinton had a lot more to do with it than Bush. If we were attacked today, then you can blame the Bush Admin for blowing it, but 911 was all Clinton.

Sheeple People who refuse to accept the fact that the Bush administration Orchestrated the Terror Attacks of 911 are just plain ignorant. It's impossible for Jet fuel or Kerosene to melt iron...LOOK AT THE PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS. Also if the floors collapsed causing a chain reaction it would have taken well over 90 seconds for the buildings to come down. They came down at free fall speed....9 seconds. There is no logical argument here. Explosives were pre-planted in the building. Case closed! Why are so many people having a hard time accepting this?

Bad things happen. There is no way to stop them...
I will use the stock market as an example. On any given day and expert will tell you to sell one stock and another expert will tell you to buy that very same stock.
It is just a matter of judgement. If you make a decision and things work out, GOOD. If you make one and they do not, BAD. I do not expect the government to STOP bad things from happening, or "protect me". You shouldn't either.

well... as many have said... no one really thought he was that big of a threat...
if anyone did... both Clinton or Bush would have clearly done more to get him... clearly...
hindsight is 20/20
and the "source" would clearly be his lack of action before 9-11...
