Hmmmm, thats not quite what the media told us when Bubba was prez...



The Herald
By Ian Bruce
December 28, 1999


The world's most wanted man, Osama bin Laden, has been offered
sanctuary in
Iraq if his worldwide terrorist network succeeds in carrying out a
campaign of
high-profile attacks on the West over the next few weeks.


Intelligence sources say the Saudi dissident believed responsible for
the bombings of American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and a US
military barracks in Saudi Arabia in 1998, is running out of options
for a safe haven.


He is now thought to have overcome his initial rejection of Saddam
Hussein, whom he regarded as an exploiter of the Islamic cause rather
than a true believer, and is considering the offer of a bolt-hole from
which he can continue to mastermind terrorism on a global scale.


A US counter-terrorist source said yesterday: "Our State Department
issued a worldwide warning on December 11. We have solid information
that many of the groups operating under bin Laden's patronage are
planning 'spectaculars' to coincide with the period leading up to and
through the millennium celebrations.


"They want to inflict maximum loss of life in return for publicity.
Now we are also facing the prospect of an unholy alliance between bin
Laden and Saddam. The implications are terrifying.

Has anybody ever seen the movie 50 First dates with adam sandler and drew barrymore? That's what I think about whenever i hear dems go on with Bush lied. The same case of Iraq was made by dems before bush took office. But that aside, suppose there never was a clinton admin that made the same case. Why are the democrats still running with the same issue that did not work in 2004?
