Olson Book's Chilling Warning: Clinton's Terrorist Pardons Sent Signal
In a bone chilling chapter of her new book "The Final Days," late heroine-author Barbara Olson warned that ex-president Bill Clinton's pardons of terrorists who had repeatedly bombed buildings in New York City "send a signal" that the U.S. isn't serious about fighting terrorism.
In words that now seem like a harbinger of her own Sept. 11 death at the hands of the Middle Eastern terrorists, Olson cited example after example of how U.S. officials strenuously warned Clinton that pardoning FALN Puerto Rican separatists who had waged their own bombing jihad on America posed a threat to national security.
In August 1999 Clinton pardoned 16 FALN terrorists without even being asked, in a move that was widely seen as a cynical ploy to win Hispanic votes for his wife's New York senate bid.
The group had planned and executed 130 bombing attacks on New York, Chicago and Washington, D.C. from 1974 to 1983. Miraculously, the FALN managed to kill just six Americans. But hundreds more were seriously wounded.
Law enforcement officials were stunned when Clinton decided to pardon the FALN bombers.
"The FBI's assistant director of national security, Neil Gallagher, said that the people turned loose by Clinton 'are criminals, and they are terrorists, and they represent a threat to the United States,'" Olson wrote.
In a subchapter eerily headlined "Pardons for Terrorists Send a Signal," she reported:
"President Clinton had not bothered to consult with relatives of victims of FALN terrorism. In fact, the survivors of those murdered and those whose lives had otherwise been destroyed by the terrorists were not even informed that their attackers were being released."
Olson continued:
"Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder.... conceded that the nation owed much greater consideration to the victims. And Holder's boss, Janet Reno, explicitly acknowledged that groups aligned with the FALN still posed a threat to national security."
In comments turned gut-wrenching in light of last month's attacks, former Justice Department pardon attorney Margaret Love told the late author that Clinton's terrorist pardons should have set off alarm bells.
"We should have seen a big flashing red light because of the FALN cases.... That was a foreshoadowing of what happened later."
Love was referring to Clinton's January 2001 pardons of drug dealers and international fugitives, not the attacks on the U.S., which no one foresaw. But it's nearly impossible now to read those words as anything but prophesy of the terrorist acts that murdered Olson and nearly 6,000 others last month.
In a moment of now legendary heroism, the late author telephoned her husband, Solicitor General Ted Olson, from American Flight 175 to warn that terrorists had hijacked her plane. Mr. Olson had the terrible task of telling his wife that two planes had slammed into New York's World Trade Center minutes before.
Barbara Olson's phone call was the first warning the government had that Washington, D.C. had come under similar attack.
In comments sure to irk those who argued for eight years that Bill Clinton's private life was nobody else's business, the late author contends that the terrorist pardons were payback for Mrs. Clinton indulging her husband's decades of rampant philandering.
"Hillary had done a lot of heavy lifting for her husband, much of it, such as the various bimbo eruptions, that required her to hold her nose. She had to cover for her husband and lie."
Olson called the FALN pardons Bill Clinton's "first return on her investment."
Though a lively debate has raged ever since Sept. 11 over whether the ex-president did as much as he could to stop Osama bin Laden, the one-time congressional Clinton investigator is the first to raise the FALN pardon question at any length.
Perhaps now Sen. Clinton, who has made herself newly available on the TV talk show circuit since the World Trade Center attacks, will be asked whether she agrees with Olson that her husband's terrorist pardons "sent a signal."
Does anyone have a quick short list of these people? and the convicted FALN bombers?
they have a "time share" in n afghani cave, don't they?
chinese "people's house"?
indonesian "tobacco cottage"....thats it
Do you mean we should...Freep it?
Absolutely. Give her one for the road on her way to heaven.
Incidentally, the poster of the slander at 7 comes up "No current Freeper by that name."
I have Barbara's Hell to Pay and note that she's the only one to nail Hitlery's fat a$$ for the sealed Wellesley thesis being a bl*wj*b for Saul Alinsky the radical who counselled
We have Barbara's Final Days on order, and are now starting David Limbaugh's Absolute Power as we've got the Renocerous D#ke to beat back into the Everglades.
Of course Hitlery aka Die Hundin von Buchenvald is a horror show. She got the murderous FALN bombers loose, smooched Suha [after the blood libel], was pom-pom girl for the Terrorist State Dedicated to Israel's Destruction, and
was forced to return thousands from the Hamas front American Muslim Council--having tried to disguise it as "American MUSEUM Council!
Somebody reduced the security at the Federal buildings in New York City--this was reported in the NYPost yet left to stand--even after the Osama stooge took a guard's eye with a shank.
There is no interpretation of the two-headed Clinton beast other than traitorous--dedicated to the destruction of the nation.
is amazon the right choice?
we've already been thru this once.
amazon lists it under "conspiresy theories"...
any other suggestions? thanks.
And per Ambrose Evans-Pritchard The Secret Life of Bill Clinton the late "Leading With My Bottle" anesthesiologist killed a seventeen-year-old girl by drunkenly ramming an anesthetic tube through the girl's throat. As with the traitor-rapist's cocaine overdose, this scandal was hushed up with threats from Hitlery. There are questions about the death of "Leading With My Bottle" but with the usual suspects as "medical examiner" they will remain questions.
Incidentally, the poster to whom you addressed your post does not exist. Try a search on the poster of #7--No such FReeper, no such zone.
It is not beyond Hitlery to have engineered Barbara Olson's fate--this is the one who did Vince--[cue Leno: Oh, but I'm way out of line here. . . ]
Oh, but they couldn't possibly do such a thing. You see, they informed me yesterday exactly why they have been whining and pouting about the current administration - you see, the press is the "government watchdogs." (don't laugh, it was said)
One thing only makes me madder than the Clinton's, and that is the lying, sniveling, arrogant, pompous *ssholes, liars, and presstitutes of the major media.
Sadly, I'm not surprised. The Klinton legacy just keeps getting better all the time.
I've been so desensitized to klintoon shenanigans that if I saw video of Bubba and Hitlery standing on a dining table eating a bag of used kitty litter, I would barely raise an eyebrow.
We have to look at what conned them so effectively in the first place: the media has given both Clintons a free ride. The media has to be held accountable. No more fluff pieces about "oh, we almost got Osama many times" should go unFreeped. They have allowed Clinton to milk this as publicity.
The way Hitlery behaved at Bush's speech should have given all New Yorkers a clue.
