"The week has ended with the hit on a man who has probably killed more innocent people than bin Laden. The Israelis kept their word. They gave fair warning to whomever took over the top spot in the terror organization Hamas—“show your face and die.” Today, Rantisi did both. Abdel Aziz Rantisi, proud head and co-founder of one the world’s most famous groups of killers, the proud parent of the suicide bomber plan, was given a missile to chew on and it gave him extreme indigestion."

I don't know why, but I just loved the comment "was given a missle to chew on and it gave him extreme indigestion." I loved the rest of the article as well!

I like that phrase: "Show your face and die." Hot diggity dog! Israel knows how to do the right thing. May take them a bit but they come through. Yippee! Salute to Israel!

Another question comes to mind. Ms. Gorelick felt the sudden need to make a law that had been working quite effectively for two decades even more impossible for those given the task of putting all those dots together. Her recommendation was sent directly to President Clinton who got so excited about it that he made it an Executive Order. Put simply, it ordered our FBI and CIA to talk to no one, about anything, at any time, for any reason—period. It apparently was followed to the letter, hence, we were blindsided in September of 2001. The question that keeps surfacing in my mind is a simple one—WHY?

Here's one for people with better memories than mine. What was going on in Clinton's own legal life at the time?
