We don't need conjecture to figure out what Clinton's reaction would be: After terrorists tried to blow up the WTC in '93 he did nothing.
Nor did they react to the U.S.S. Cole and other terrorism on his watch. As well, their response to saddam was continued U.N. sanctions and letting our planes get shot at.
Koppel and Brokaw need to get out of their fictionial world and acknowledge Clinton was hit with challenges on lesser scale that give us insight into his response. Going to war against Iraq with the UN. balking at enforcing its own resolution never would have happened...unless he needed a distraction for another Monica. And even then he'd never have stuck by them once his latest scandel died down.
