Bush adminstration could've captured terrorist Osama Bin Laden in December 2001: Senate report

www.nydailynews.com

Osama Bin Laden was within military reach when the Bush administration allowed him to disappear into the mountains of Afghanistan rather than pursue him with a massive military force, a new Senate report says.

The report asserts that the failure to get the terrorist leader when he was at his most vulnerable in December 2001 - three months after the 9/11 attacks - led to today's reinvigorated insurgency in Afghanistan.

dodgy claim removed by me

Well just think of all the revenue that has been "raised" -

They would have "caught" him and the case for IRAQ would have been nil in the public eye.

as he said


"MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!"

Where are all the patriotic, anti big corrupt government haters in this mother?

Well sometimes silence can speak volumes-

You don't like this farce of a government? Then you need to be consistent in your efforts and critique...

On a political front this is why I really question people's motives and thinking.

A very clear case of bait and switch, create the boogey man only to ignore the boogey man, go about your conquest and fund raising.

If this is not a real conspiracy I don't know what is -

Well off course they let him slip away ...

Can't very well start wars if you don't have any evil carrots to chase.

I'm right here. Aren't you anti-big government? Because this is the result of big government and the corruption that comes with it. War is just a big government program no more effective than any other monstrosity we let these idiots get away with.

im no fan of bush

but this is liberal propaganda.

Tell me exactly how anyone could know "Bin Laden is in that cave".

Malarkey if you ask me.

How much devastation, how much horror, how much hatred was generated.

If "they" have this evil ability to create an "Era of Horrors and Hatred and Deception", then we can attend only the worse one for our future.

Actually it isn't "Liberal propaganda" we had Delta on his ass back in 2001 and they were called off. This is a matter of public record. I recommend doing a bit of research. Some of us have known about this for quite some time and didn't need a senate panel to state it.

I say war has a distinct difference -

An individual engages in those aspects and they get the chair.

Glad you are of principle

Being a Constitutionalist(and soon to be a soldier) comes with certain responsibilities. Like being consistent. A republican or democrat cannot claim the same to be true of their respective ideologies.

They can still get him. Just ask the CIA where he is now. Still visiting Saddam or is he hanging with Mohamed Atta?

reply to post by Imagir


I don't know what to tell you Imagir other than my heart weeps along yours ...

But they'd been planning all this stuff for eight years whilst Bill was pres., they weren't gonna let a little detail like capturing the bad guy get in the way.

Just my take on it.

I think that We are living the worse period of the human civilization.
I do not only refer to the West civilization. There are, right NOW, enormous POWDERS KEGS ready to detonate in the world.

Economy, food, water, energy…

Only an other leak in the glass bell jar and..... all will explode!

I saw on the national geographic channels. That the CIA had him cornerd in Tora Bora. They requested more troops to cut off his escape to Pakastan and the white house denied thier request.

After reading this article (or any for that matter) would you spew the same contempt for the Clinton Admin ?
Clinton could have captured or killed Bin Laden 3 times

Please tell me that this is not just another "I Hate Bush" thread and that your outrage is not partisan.

I not support neither with Bush neither with Clinton.
Neither with republicans neither with democratics.
Neither with the whites neither with the black ones.
And I'm not American.

But......
There is something behind the Throne that is very powerfull than the Kings!

It is more likely Bin Ladin is dead and his legacy is being exploited by those that benefit the most by him still being alive.
