Send it to Dan Rather, Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw. I'm sure they'll appreciate hearing how little their boy Bubba did to fight terrorism.

Thank you and to everyone who contributes to FR so we can be more educated on the facts of instances like this. It is our ammo to fire back at the leftists.

uh oh, I'm sure the story will quickly change now. Or on second thought, maybe it won't, they will probably continue to blame Bush.

The 200 Washington policemen at the exercise, code-named "Poised Response".
Poised Response, just like the Clinton Justice Department to feminize the police department/FBI.

Here's more

Patterns of Global Terrorism: 1998

In South Asia, the Taliban has made Afghanistan a safehaven for international terrorists, particularly Usama Bin Ladin. The United States made it clear to the Taliban on numerous occasions that it must stop harboring such terrorists. Despite US engagement of the Taliban in an ongoing dialogue, its leaders have refused to expel Bin Ladin to a country where he can be brought to justice.

Afghanistan

Islamic extremists from around the world--including large numbers of Egyptians, Algerians, Palestinians, and Saudis--in 1998 continued to use Afghanistan as a training ground and a base of operations for their worldwide terrorist activities. The Taliban, which controls most of the territory in Afghanistan, facilitated the operation of training and indoctrination facilities for non-Afghans and provided logistical support and sometimes passports to members of various terrorist organizations. Throughout 1998 the Taliban continued to host Usama Bin Ladin, who was indicted in November for the bombings in August of two US Embassies in East Africa.
