Re: OT - Clinton was NOT offered Bin Laden by Sudan in 1996


"Mr Soul" <google@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote in message news:...
No, as they admitted, Clinton Administration stated that the only reason
that they didn't accept Bin Laden was that they thought they didn't have
enough to indict.
That's a lie.

YOU LIE, and Pixie & Playon LIE, you have NEVER at any time verified such a
thing yet the FACTS will NEVER slow your ignorant rants!

"lacking a case to indict him in U.S. courts at the time, the Clinton
administration finally gave up on the capture."

"The FBI did not believe we had enough evidence to indict bin Laden at that
time, and therefore opposed bringing him to the United States," said Samuel
R. "Sandy" Berger, who was deputy national security adviser then."

He lied as was in his best interest. There's no way on Earth that he
wants
the world to know that 9/11 could have been pre-empted in 1996, and the
Wash
Post AND the Village Voice BOTH quote sources that mention that it would
have stopped 9/11.
That's interesting. You can't have it both way Mr. Danceman. You
can't pick & choose what Clinton lies or tells the truth about.


By that logic NO ONE can EVER believe Clinton again because we ALL know that
he has told lies when it served his personal interest.

We all know that Clinton AT TIMES was truthful, and Clinton AT TIMES could
NOT be trusted because he would lie to save himself embarrassment.

Those are FACTS!

Where are the quotes that you keep claiming? I'm waiting for them.


Osama bin Laden could have been in U.S. custody five years ago if Washington
had accepted an offer from the Sudanese government. So says UN ambassador
and major general Elfatih Erwa, who, as Sudan's then minister of state for
defense, flew from Khartoum to Washington for secret negotiations with the
CIA in 1996. http://villagevoice.com/news/0144,gould,29537,1.html

"Erwa said Sudan would consider any legitimate proffer of criminal charges
against the accused terrorist."
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&contentId=A61251-2001Oct2


From the LA TIMES!

"President Clinton and his national security team ignored several
opportunities to capture Osama bin Laden and his terrorist associates,
including one as late as last year." "I know because I negotiated more than
one of the opportunities."

"The silence of the Clinton administration in responding to these offers was
deafening. As an American Muslim and a political supporter of Clinton, I
feel now, as I argued with Clinton and Berger then, that their
counter-terrorism policies fueled the rise of Bin Laden"

From 1996 to 1998, I opened unofficial channels between Sudan and the
Clinton administration.
The bombings that happened earlier. The stories do mention that some
interviewed think that the Clinton Administration did NOT want to upset
some
in Saudi Arabia that like and supported Bin Laden.
What bombings?


"Between 1991 and 1996, Al Qaeda took part in several major terror attacks.
Al Qaeda was involved in the bombing of two hotels in Aden, Yemen, which
targeted American troops en route to Somalia on a humanitarian and
peacekeeping mission. It also gave massive assistance to Somali militias,
whose efforts brought the eventual withdrawal of U.S. forces in 1994. Bin
Laden was also involved in an assassination attempt against Egyptian
president Hosni Mubarak in Ethiopia in June 1995".

"Somebody let this slip up," the intelligence chief says." "That's the
story, and that's what could have prevented September 11. I knew
it would come back to haunt us."
http://villagevoice.com/news/0144,gould,29537,1.html

I disagree with this piece.

Disagree all you like, it is NOT the only time this view was published.

"Bin Laden's good fortune in slipping through U.S. fingers torments some
former officials with the thought that the subsequent attacks might have
been averted."
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&contentId=A61251-2001Oct2

"Forgoing the opportunity to arrest Bin Laden was "not the most brilliant
maneuver we've ever made," notes another former intelligence chief familiar
with the story" http://villagevoice.com/news/0144,gould,29537,1.html

Why is it that you now quote the Village
Voice as your main source?


It is ONE of FOUR sources and it goes further in depth than any other News
Source.

Surely you are NOT going to try to portray the Village Voice as Right Wing.

I'm still waiting for the direct quotes and multiple sources.

UN ambassador and major general Elfatih Erwa is quoted in both the
Washington Post, and the Village Voice clips shown above. I would think that
you would trust them as sources, and that they would properly source what
they write. I also added a story published in the LA Times by Mansoor Ijaz,
and again, I don't think that you would call the LA Times too Right Wing
either!

The FOUR sources that I have listed are the Washington Post, the Village
Voice, LA Times, and cooperativeresearch.org

Sudan offers to extradite bin Laden to anywhere he might stand trial. Some
accounts claim that Sudan offers bin Laden to the US, but the US decides not
to take him because they do not have enough evidence at the time to charge
him with a crime
