at the time I assumed clinton didn't want his weak military/foreign policy record being attacked before the 96 election, and thus the issue was squelched.

These days I am more inclined to think that the US has a no-acknowledgement policy regarding terrorism in the US, given how effectively the norman OK bombing event was squelched.

My view is that the Clinton administration had a "deep denial" approach to Muzzie terrorism.

They had a domestic agenda they wished to pursue, and did not want it sidetracked by a War On Terror.

Therefore they were prepared to cover up any terrorist acts one way or another--blame them on white supremacists, fuel tanks, mechanical error, pilot error, anything. Perhaps Vince Foster's murder is related somehow. His body was dumped across from the street from the Saudi Ambassador's residence and middle eastern men were hassling and attempting to intimidate one of the witnesses in the case. To hold the coverup Clinton may have made a deal with the Saudis--you can take care of your own terrorist nationals on our soil so we both deny anything is happening.

(Saudis--hired to do the job Clintonites won't do. :-) )
