Why hasn't anyone tried to take much credit for it? If I were a terrorist and I wanted the people of America to know I did it, I would be shouting it from the rooftops. SOMEONE would have run the story, even if it was the international press...

As others who write books have theorized, it may have been a Navy missile test gone wrong. Thus the cover-up to protect Clinton's re-election chances.

But along the way you are thinking, if it was a test gone bad. I wonder why a navy crewman or two with a guilty conscience hasn't come forward.

We'll never know the truth.

Thus the cover-up to protect Clinton's re-election chances.

The cover-up may also have been intended to minimize the potential impact on the Olympics in Atlanta that summer (in case some people refused to fly).
