And we had him literally in our sights under Clinton but couldn’t get an OK to take him out.

The report, written by the Senate Foreign Relations, says bin Laden was within reach on Dec. 16, but he and his "entourage of bodyguards walked unmolested out of Tora Bora...

Indeed....Clinton and Berger seemed unable to come up with the balls to give authorization to CIA operatives to capture OBL in the Spring of 1998 when they had him in their sights.

Funny how that wasn't mentioned in the report.
