Clinton destroyed national security by dissing the CIA and appeasing the Commmies and Muslim Terror groups.

thx :)
But the 9/11 commission's executive director (I'm sure a Dem) did say the Clinton administration did have an "energetic response" to the threat.
Nice catch. Certainly torpedoes Hitlery's assertions from yesterday.
BTTT
Major Clinton lying hypocrisy ping!!
Please help to research this subject and spread the info to the media.
Hillary should be devoid of all credibility by now.....
This directly contradicts Hillary's preposterous assertion that the Aug. 2001 PDB represented some great red flag that would have produced decisive action by the Clintonistas.
Look at the further indications of great Al Qaeda concern for terrorist prisoners associated with the 1993 WTC bombing, etc.
They held a meeting?
I get the feeling that Klinton also filled the CIA and FBI with corrupt liberals to purposely weaken them. I find it interesting how often the CIA releases reports "proving" that the war on terrorism is ineffective, is causing more terrorism, is destroying America's credibility in the world, and that the only WMDs left in Iraq are a handful of obsolete and ineffective shells from the '80s.
the fact that Bin ladin was around to plan 9-11 proves that hillary was lying yesterday. Bubba had 10 chances to nail bin laidn and he missed them all, ironically he never missed a chance at nailing monica.
Oh, I'm sure this guy's idea of energetic is something along those lines.
But if you trot this article out to your lefty relatives, they'll point to that one characterization as proof that Clinton did take more seriously the terror threat than Bush.
I knew I had seen this posted somewhere on the Internet recently. Interesting that this story was written by Susan Schmidt, whom the Clintons and their sycophants hated because she reported so much dirt out of the Clinton White House and did not drink the Al Gore Koolaid in 2000.
1998. Was Usef in jail in the US at that time? The Plilipino cops surely had his notes and laptop by then.
This PDD means that we (the USA) had been warned at least twice.
9/11 Timeline: "Intelligence Warnings"
1998: Indonesia Gives US Warning of 9/11 Attack?
Hendropriyono, the Indonesian chief of intelligence, will later claim that, [we] had intelligence predicting the September 11 attacks three years before it happened but nobody believed us. He says Indonesian intelligence agents identify bin Laden as the leader of the group plotting the attack and that the US disregards the warning, but otherwise offers no additional details. The Associated Press notes, Indonesias intelligence services are not renowned for their accuracy. [Associated Press, 7/9/2003]

1999: British Intelligence Warns al-Qaeda Plans to Use Aircraft, Possibly as Flying Bombs

March 1999: Germany Provides CIA Hijackers Name and Telephone Number
German intelligence gives the CIA the first name of hijacker Marwan Alshehhi and his telephone number in the United Arab Emirates. The Germans learned the information from surveillance of suspected Islamic militants. They tell the CIA that Alshehhi has been in contact with suspected al-Qaeda members Mohammed Haydar Zammar and Mamoun Darkazanli. He is described as a United Arab Emirates student who has spent some time studying in Germany. [US Congress, 7/24/2003; Deutsche Presse-Agentur (Hamburg), 8/13/2003; New York Times, 2/24/2004] The Germans consider this information particularly valuable and ask the CIA to track Alshehhi, but the CIA never responds until after the 9/11 attacks. The CIA decides at the time that this Marwan is probably an associate of bin Laden but never track him down. It is not clear why the CIA fails to act, or if they learn his last name before 9/11. [New York Times, 2/24/2004] The Germans monitor other calls between Alshehhi and Zammar, but it isnt clear if the CIA is also told of these or not (see September 21, 1999).

August 12, 2000: Italian Intelligence Wiretap of al-Qaeda Cell Reveals Massive Aircraft-based Strike
Italian intelligence successfully wiretap the al-Qaeda cell in Milan, Italy from late 1999 until the summer of 2001. [Boston Globe, 8/4/2002] In a wiretapped conversation from this day, suspected Yemeni Abdulsalam Ali Abdulrahman tells wanted Egyptian Mahmoud Es Sayed about a massive strike against the enemies of Islam involving aircraft and the sky, a blow that will be written about in all the newspapers of the world. This will be one of those strikes that will never be forgotten. ... This is a terrifying thing. This is a thing that will spread from south to north, from east to west: The person who came up with this program is a madman from a madhouse, a madman but a genius. In another conversation, Abdulrahman tells Es Sayed: Im studying airplanes. I hope, God willing, that I can bring you a window or a piece of an airplane the next time we see each other. The comment is followed by laughter. Beginning in October 2000, FBI experts will help Italian police analyze the intercepts and warnings. Neither Italy nor the FBI will understand their meaning until after 9/11. [Boston Globe, 8/4/2002]

Thanks.
I wonder...does that qualify as far as Hillary is concerned as a memo detailing a strike within the United States...like the Aug 6 memo that shes' grabbed onto so fiercely lately?
I wonder which brave reporter will be the first and last to ask Mrs. cold blood about the comparisons on content and whether they are pretty much the same.
Look here.
Makes one rethink TWA 800 and OKC doesn't it?
