On Tape, Clinton Admits Passing Up bin Laden Capture; Lewinsky Played Role
On Tape, Clinton Admits Passing Up bin Laden Capture; Lewinsky Played Role
Bill Clinton denies it now, but he once admitted he passed up an opportunity to extradite Osama bin Laden.
And NewsMax has the former President making the claim on audiotape. [You can listen to the tape yourself] -- Click Here
Clinton's comments and his actions relating to American efforts to capture bin Laden have taken on renewed interest because of claims made in a new ABC movie, the "Path to 9/11," that suggests Clinton dropped the ball during his presidency. Clinton has also angrily denied claims the Monica Lewinsky scandal drew his attention away from dealing with national security matters like capturing bin Laden.
...During a February 2002 speech, Clinton explained that he turned down an offer from Sudan for bin Laden's extradition to the U.S., saying, "At the time, 1996, he had committed no crime against America, so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on which to hold him."
But that wasn't exactly true. By 1996, the 9/11 mastermind had already been named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing by prosecutors in New York.

The only way you can make your claim that Bush kept us "safe" from terrorist attacks for 7 years is by grossly redefining the issue to the point of nonsensical. That same redefinition would throw out all of the "terrorist attacks" that occured under Obama as well, leaving only the Underwear Bomber.
And you have the audacity to try and dress down lefties for making political hay?
Hello? We are discussing the war with Al Qaida.
All 3 terrorist attacks in the US under Obama are linked to Al Qaida.

Here is a more credible source: FactCheck.org: Did Bill Clinton pass up a chance to kill Osama bin Laden?
Blaming Clinton for not getting bin Laden is kind of like blaming Bush for not preventing 9/11: retarded.

Actually, we're discussing the "War on Terrorism" which you are desperate to define as strictly a war with Al Queda.
The War on Terrorism (also known as the Global War on Terrorism or the War on Terror) is the common term for what the George W. Bush administration perceived or presented as the military, political, legal and ideological conflict against Islamic terrorism, Islamic militants and the regimes and organizations tied to them or that supported them, and was specifically used in reference to operations by the United States, the United Kingdom and its allies since the September 11, 2001 attacks.
It doesn't single out Al Queda.
