You have to remember that this was just over a year after Oklahoma City and in the middle of a presidential election year. The Clintons had very successfully run their coverup/PR campaign to convince Americans that the only terrorists we needed to worry about were white right-wing militia nuts. That campaign had brought Clinton back from a political abyss in January 1995 to running away with the 1996 election. I have no doubt that Sandy Berger was under direct orders to stifle any reports of terrorist acts that could be traced to a foreign government and require a declaration of war, and possibly lead to the uncovering of the Oklahoma City coverup and the fact that Iraqis were involved in that bombing. It was a tangled web of deception that lasted right up until the Bush inauguration. Condi Rice was still untangling it all on 9/11.
Imagine if the truth of any of this had come out at the time. Clinton could actually have been impeached and convicted, and it would not have been "just about sex." He and his harpy wife would have been disgraced forever. So this is a pretty damn big story!!!!
Typical Clinton meeting:
1. 1993 Twin Tower bombing. Ques.: What do we do?
Ans.: Investigate it solely in the direction which will coincide with what we want to tell the people and shut it down. Is that okay with everyone?, said Bubba as he passed out the cigars and rose colored glasses.
2. OKC. Same as Ans. above.
3. Kobar Towers: Same as Ans. above.
4. USS Cole: Same as Ans. above.
Bubba definitely had a pattern throughout his years.
