Osama bin Laden came within minutes of killing Bill Clinton
Telegraph ^ | 12/22/09 | Tom Leonard

Former President Bill Clinton came within minutes of being assassinated in the Philippines by terrorists controlled by Osama bin Laden, a new book has revealed. ...Marisa Porges, a former government counter-terrorism advisor and an expert at the Council on Foreign Relations, a US think tank, said the assassination plot, if true, would suggest al Qaeda was more developed than some thought it was prior to 9/11”.

OK, I despise the Clintons, but I would want serious revenge taken on any person or group that would harm any current or former president!

Hillary Clinton came the closest to killing Bill Clinton.

Just a fraction of an inch closer and that flying ash tray would have caught him right in the temple.

Similar to an attempt by a VC bomber to kill Secy of Defense McNamara about 1965 in So. Vietnam. Planted a bomb under a bridge where Mc was supposed to drive over to visit someplace.

The assassin was captured, tried and executed. Tom Hayden and Jane Fonda named their son Troi after him (believe the name was Nguyen Van Troi).

A shame that he missed. We might have saved a lot of lives of American and allied soldiers as well as won the war, if McNamara wasn’t around then. He was a pathetic POS and the best friend the communists had in the White House.

Al Qaeda was fully trained by the US in Afganistan and Bosnia, by Wesley Clark. Clark wanted them to flush all the Christians out of Yugoslavia.

I bet Osama kicks himself each day for missing Clinton.

I don’t know what’s going on but lately it seems it’s mods gone wild. They are removing everything.

All in all I sometimes wish Billy was in there instead of Obama. At least we would have a whoremonger instead of some Communist piece of $hit intent on destroying and taxing every breathing, walking thing in the nation (though I do despise what he did regarding the chicoms).

BlowJob is actually “some Communist piece of $hit intent on destroying and taxing every breathing, walking thing in the nation”.

He just gets a lot of attention about women that IS REPORTED. Nothing is reported about 0bama and women. It’s like his other life history.

The modern Islamic movement began in Bosnia with Izetbegovic's Islamic Declaration originally written in 1970.

Al Qaeda began in Bosnia

Who in the West originally decided to try and harness that barbaric Muslim horse and ride it is anyone guess, but it was certainly more that one person's bad idea.
