Sandy Berger’s underwear stuff:

1. Sudan offered OBL to the USA not once but TWICE. And was rebuffed.

2. Something about the Milennium Bomb Plot, which included LAX as a target.

Apparently what they were really scared of was their own hand-written notations on the documents.

It’s still unclear, but what’s clear is they were afraid of something to do with their 9-11 related measures.

The Millennium bomb plot included not just a plot to bomb LAX but also a plot to bomb a big hotel in Jordan and IIRC, other targets there.
The part to take place in Jordan was coordinated by Jordanian terrorist Zarqawi.
Zarqawi was the terrorist who Colin Powell referred to in his UN speech in the runup to the Iraq War as having a terrorist cell in Baghdad and in N. Iraq. The Democrats made fun of the very idea that secular Iraq would harbor jihadists and they downplayed the Baghdad cell and its existence under Saddam’s nose.
As it happens, Zarqawi not only had a terrorist cell sitting there under Saddam’s nose, his terrorist group was later formally joined by one of Saddam’s generals and a bunch of Baathists and they renamed the group Al Qaeda in Iraq. Later it became ISIS...and Zarqawi was ISIS’ first leader before al Baghdadi.
