This is a very good analysis of what is wrong with the American military, pre- and post- 9/11. Long but worth the read.

What do you think?

AS TERRORIST ATTACKS escalated in the 1990s, White House rhetoric intensified.
President Clinton met each successive outrage with a vow to punish the perpetrators.
After the Cole bombing in 2000, for example, he pledged to "find out who is responsible
and hold them accountable." And to prove he was serious, he issued an
increasingly tough series of Presidential Decision Directives.


Words, words, and more words.
All that Clinton really did...as documented in "Losing bin Laden" by Miniter (sp?).

But I do appreciate something about Bubba.
After his flaccid response to terrorism, even against embassies and a US Navy destroyer...
combined with all the mainstream press painting Dubya as an impotent simpleton...
Osama, Mullah Omar, Saddam and an army of Islamo-facist thugs thought they
could attack the Great Satan for sport and without paying a price.

Suprise, suprise, suprise!

bill clinton and al Qaeda were] and still are] on the same side.

Both consider it their duty to destroy America.

Ever since he was run out of England for organizing protests against the United States during the Vietnam War up to and including this very minute, bill clinton's sole desire was and still is the total and complete destruction of the United States of America.

In this endevor he has been aided by the voters of America who twice elected him as their President, [the second time knowing full well what a pervert and sob he is]. The mainstream media, the democrat party. The voters from the State of New York who elected his wife to the United States Senate in order that she could continue his work.

No, bill clinton has never considered it his duty to protect the United States of america.

He has and still does consider it his duty to destroy the United States of America.

For that matter so do the mainstream media and the democrat party.
