Of all the malfeasant scandals the Clintons have committed, from lying under oath, to Whitewater to the Marc Rich pardon, little compares to the politically craven 1999 clemencies to 16 unrepentant terrorists of the Puerto Rican terrorist group FALN (Armed Forces for National Liberation). Fred DuVal was the co-chair of President Clinton’s White House Interagency Group of Puerto Rico, one of the groups that actively promoted clemency for terrorists.
frauncestavernbombingFrom 1974 to 1983, the FALN waged a merciless, bloody war against the United States, attacking civilians mainly in Chicago and New York. On January 24, 1975, the FALN’s most deadly attack, the infamous lunchtime bombing of Fraunces Tavern, a New York City landmark, killed my father, Frank Connor, 33, and three other innocent men. It was supposed to be the day we would celebrate my brother’s 11th birthday, and my 9th.
An FALN communique of that day took credit for the attack, which it called a blow against “reactionary corporate executives.” In fact, my dad was born to immigrants and raised in working-class Washington Heights in northern Manhattan, not far from . . .
Remember, these pardons were with Hillary’s blessing. Just her paying it forward in anticipation of her NY senate campaign. She then had the gall to call out Obama on his Ayers connection during her presidential run.
Can an Islamic terrorist be repentant, and still be Islamic? I don’t see how. Why not say “Islamic terrorists,” and leave the concept of repentance for use with other terrorists, like environmental wackos, or animal rights nuts, who might repent.
The Clintons, like Bush, and Obama, are playing with the Muslim Brotherhood, and the politics of Islamic cash. I also think they believe there are Muslims who can coexist with Western civilization, without conflicts and tensions between their Islamic oppression and Western liberation. So, with the skids greased, and brains mushed, the Clintons released Islamic terrorists who hate us, want to kill us, and everyone else.
Wait until you see the laundry list of criminals that the Criminal-in-Chief pardons as his term ends.(If it ever does)
But they were dirt poor and needed the money....
The Clinton pardons (150) and commutations (40):

List includes many fraudsters, racketeers, drug dealers etc.
Anyone else think maybe Clinton took bribes to let some of these people off the hook?
I do.
Ping.
