Responding to last week's terrorist attacks in Riyadh, President Bush declared that "the United States will find the killers, and they will learn the meaning of American justice." This is a president who is serious about fighting and winning the war on terrorism. The liberation of Iraq and the continued effort to bring al Qaeda to justice are all the proof anyone should need.

Screwy Louie Freeh will long be remembered as one of the most inept Clinton appointees.

"This time the United States should not just send Tehran a letter. American justice for our 19 Khobar heroes is long overdue. "

I agree. Send the 4th ID across the border into Iran. I think we should accommodate their desire to die. Allah Akbar!!

Hezbollah? I am wondering what I was doing besides reading when these indictments came down. I also had not realized that we interviewed anyone in Saudi Arabia.Say what you like about Freeh, he hits Clinton hard on this.Was it the Clinton administration that misled? Iran harboring AlQueda that bombed the civilians is another mark on Iran.AlQueda,Islamic Jihad,Hezbollah ..sisters and brothers.

He reveals we did interview Saudis,thanks to former President Bush. The Clinton administration misled and Freeh hits them for failing to "upset "Iran.Hezbollah...a sister of AlQueda.That hotbed needs destabilizing.

Would I be an anti "Asian" to welcome my nephew in this world? Am I an Anti semite to not quite get why we love Isreal at the expense of even freer oil?

Unfortunately, the White House was unable or unwilling to help the FBI gain access to these critical witnesses. The only direction from the Clinton administration regarding Iran was to order the FBI to stop photographing and fingerprinting official Iranian delegations entering the U.S. because it was adversely impacting our "relationship" with Tehran. We had argued that the MOIS was using these groups to infiltrate its agents into the U.S.

The former Director of the FBI offering clear evidence that the former POTUS was derelict in the primary duty of his office.

I wonder how this will play out.

I am bumping this important article because I missed it yesterday. This got very little to no coverage, even on Fox.

Some of his 'screw ups' may be directly related to his boss and what he would 'let' him do...some things about Clintoon, we may never know. But something like this should be SHOUTED from the roof tops!

I wonder if anybody cares...besides the obvious ones in these parts.

Maybe if AGAshcroft would seek justice in the vast government corruption under Clinton......
