Trump is right, in addition, the handoff of information on Osama was purposely bungled by the Clinton Administration, as well.

Trump is right. Clinton treated every attack as a criminal incident...lying,IMO, to the American people.

Okay - thought it was Valerie, although she is a mussie.

Hillary is going to want to keep Bubba occupied with his mistress, “the Energizer Bunny” by the time Trump is done dragging the Clinton legacy through the mud.

He’s right of course.

That’s why BJ had that sick, pale look on his face when W.
was speaking at the service a few days after 9/11. One, he couldn’t believe it wasn’t him at the podium with all eyes on him. Two, he was thinking of all the documents that would need to be destroyed(thanks Sandy!).

Maybe Trump has a copy of The Path to 9/11.

I blame Clinton, too.

“A strike targeting the eventual 9/11 mastermind would have resulted in the deaths of hundreds of innocent civilians.” Clinton is dishonest. If he cared about the deaths of innocent civilians, then he would push to overturn Roe v. Wade and abortion.

Since blame is being passed around let’s not forget Al Gore’s role. He headed some government body looking into airline safety and security and got a bunch of recommendations to improve the security of the cockpit but the industry wanted to avoid the extra expense and Gore basically caved to their wishes. The suggestion of a payoff lingers.

Oh here is the final report....read it and weep. I don’t think many of the recommendations were implemented.

I think Clinton had multiple chances to get Osama.

He said he lacked authority when asked about it years ago. This innocent casualty BS is just that.

Yup, I blame him, too, for all the reasons noted. PLUS the fact that Clinton did NOTHING about the first WTC bombing, the USS Cole bombing, the Rangers killed in Somalia, Madeleine Halfbright trundling around the world appeasing everyone, and more. By 2001, Bin Laden probably thought he was going to get away with his attack; heck, everyone else did. He was quite emboldened by our rudderless and ineffective foreign policy... just like now.

What’s the chances the next US Administration get hit with a terrorist strike during the next presidential transition? Their strategists have to know the next pres isn’t going to make us any weaker than this one. It’s only going to get harder for them the longer they wait (after BO is out).

C’mon.
Bill Clinton addressed many on the Christian crusades...blaming 9-11 on history and crusaders actions.

But the thing is.... he frames the whole crusader thing from the muslim perspective. LIKE Obama, how can you be effective at islam if you support their perspective????

Neither of these guys looked at it from the American perspective. No, they chose to blame America.

Yep, terrorists in the White House....

“I thought it was Bush’s fault.’

You need to get with the program and keep up.

That was the old last week Trump this is the new and improved this week Trump or is it the yesterday and today Trump.

I’m so confused.

I don’t think Trump means Kandahar, I think he is referring to Khartoum, where the Sudan offered OBL to us six times and Clinton refused.

Donald is right about that. It has a lot more to do with Clinton’s eight years than Bush’s eight months.

Let Osama himself witness to this. He saw the USA’s response in Somalia and started laughing, saying that he knew then that we were just a paper tiger.

Not to mention that the Saudi’s WANTED TO HAND OVER Bin Laden to Clinton but Clinton said he didn’t have any law enforcement issues to prosecute Bin Laden on. So, Billy boy refused.
