Is Bill Clinton Responsible for September 11?

No, he is not. The terrorists are responsible. Clinton is responsible for creating a poor security environment that made the raids possible by making stupid rules for intelligence agencies, promoting disarmed environments such as planes and schools, sticking his nose in everyone else's business while not attending to ours, and first and foremost creating such an atmosphere of distrust against government that folks were suspicious of ANY attempt of his to promote security.

Does the bear poop in the woods? Is the Pope a Catholic? Thanks to Billy Blythe for dismantling our security and intelligence apparatus. He's a traitor.

What keeps knawing at me is the John Huang visits to the Riady offices from the Commerce Dept, with classified info. I just have this unconfirmed feeling that this anti-american org is larger and has infiltrated much deeper than we know. Why did Riady need Huang in the commerce? Why did he tell Clinton to get him in? Frankly, I think that if people want to arget people for a backlash they should start at the DNC not a Mosque.

No, the terrorists are responsible and they will die for it. Clinton is responsible for dereliction of duty while POTUS and that will be his legacy.

Bill Clinton is responsible to the degree that Neville Chamberlain was responsible for appeasing Hitler instead of striking back early.

Hitler is known historically as the monster, but Chamberlain is universally despised for being the enabler.

Is Bill Clinton Responsible for September 11?

No, we as a nation are responsible.

Hang on a minute now, and listen.

The terrorists were just being terrorists, doing what comes natural. They had jobs to do--killing Americans and restricting American freedom--and they did those jobs very well.

We as American citizens have an important job too--defending America and preserving American freedom--that we have been practically ignoring for decades.

Americans died on September 11th not because people in this country have too many freedoms, but because we have too few.

For example, we do not have the freedom not to spend our money on foreign aid to enemies of terrorists. The government extorts our money from us and spends it on whatever foreign aid it chooses, without Constitutional authority and without asking our permission. In a Constitutional America, all foreign aid would come from private foundations that would be voluntarily funded by people who wanted to give money to a foreign government. Only the people who funded the foundations pumping money into Israel would be targeted by terrorists, not Americans in general. (I would certainly and enthusiastically be one of those people: but it is unjust to force that responsibility upon people who haven't willingly contracted for it.)

As another example, we do not have the freedom to equip ourselves defend our lives and those of others while we're on airliners--and airline companies don't even have the freedom to give us that freedom.

Americans died on September 11th not because people in this country have too many freedoms, but because we have too few.

Who took those freedoms away? The US government did.

But who let the government take those freedoms away? We did. It is not the government's job to protect the freedoms of Americans. Just like every other government, it is our government's job to take away those freedoms and grow ever larger and more powerful. If those freedoms are to be protected, they must be protected by us, and no one other than us.

So September 11th, when Americans came under attack and had no freedom to prevent the attack, was the culmination of a job very well done by terrorists. It was also the culmination of a job very well done by the government--including Bill Clinton. The only folks who have not been doing a good job, who have been ignoring their responsibilities, who have been shirking their duty--are us. And from the looks of our lukewarm reactions to indications that the government is going to use this crisis to become much more streamlined and efficient at its job...we're continuing to do nothing.

If we had been doing our job preventing the terrorists and the government from doing theirs, then on September 11th at most 19 people would have had to die, and very few feathers would have been ruffled. But because we haven't been doing our job, now the government has to go kill a lot more than 19 people, and most of the Islamic world is going to hate us even more murderously.

No, Bill Clinton is not responsible for September 11th. He was a dishonest, corrupt, contemptible criminal, but he was just doing what came naturally to him. We were the ones who elected him and put him in a place where doing what came naturally could hurt us, and then permitted our representatives to refuse to remove him from it.

“Clinton spent less concentrated attention on national defense than any other President in recent memory. He could learn an issue very quickly, but he wasn’t very interested in getting his hands dirty with detail work. His style was procrastination, seeing where everyone was, before taking action. This was truer in his first term than it was in the second, but even when he began to pay attention he was severely constrained by public opinion and his own unwillingness to take risks.”
It is hard to come up with a more damning description of negligence than that!!

I agree with you on most of what you are saying. I do belive that Bill Clinton was a traiter, and I do belive that he was some what respobsible for September 11th. You see, I usually dont like to get into politics, or choose sides, because I figure this is an on-going battle that will never be won. But, I have to give Bush some credit on going to war, yeah I know war equals death and what not, but America needs to stop giving a shit if they are liked, because its that attitude that gets us into trouble. Our whole lives America's policy on war was; We dont attack them unless they attack first, well I think that pollicy needs to go. Cliton NEVER took care of Iraq and all those countries who bullied us around, and because of Cliton thousands of people died on September 11th. Bill Cliton would have rather been partying at the white house with Monica than taking care of the millions of lives in his hands. He knew he had power, and he did things to fuck up the economy and turn countrys against us because he could. One example I can think of right now is Clintons ties with China. China donated about 250,000 dollars to Clinton campaign...I cant figure out why no one could see how fishy that was considering China hates us. Maybe we should all take the time to consider who we are voting for to control what happens to our country..do we want a strong leader? or someone who would rather commit adultry and party with some whore who works in the white house than actually take notice of the power he has and take care of his country?
