That's a complete and unmitigated lie.
Repeating the lie makes you a liar.
Clinton: So we tried to be quite aggressive with them [al Qaeda]. We got well, Mr. bin Laden used to live in Sudan. He was expelled from Saudi Arabia in 1991, then he went to Sudan. And wed been hearing that the Sudanese wanted America to start dealing with them again. They released him. 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, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against America. So I pleaded with the Saudis to take him, cause they could have. But they thought it was a hot potato and they didnt and thats how he wound up in Afghanistan.
Clinton Passed on Killing bin Laden?
Sudan never made that offer.
Period.
Critics of the Clinton administration have accused it of ignoring the threat posed by Mr. bin Laden in the mid-1990's while he was still in Sudan, and they point to claims by some Sudanese officials that they offered to turn him over to the Americans before ultimately expelling him in 1996 under international pressure. But Clinton administration diplomats have adamantly denied that they received such an offer, and the Sept. 11 commission concluded in one of its staff reports that it had "not found any reliable evidence to support the Sudanese claim."

Senate Report Concludes the Benghazi Attacks Were Preventable
Senate Report Concludes the Benghazi Attacks Were Preventable
will dems hold obama accountable?
The Washington Post's Adam Goldman and Anne Gearan got an early look at the report, and they've pulled out some of the more important findings. First, that the CIA knew about deteriorating security conditions around the Benghazi compound for weeks before the attack. Second, that the State Department didn't increase security at the compound, despite warnings about increased danger. And third, that American intelligence groups failed to share crucial information in the lead-up to the attacks, including the existence of a secret CIA annex near the compound. The Intelligence Committee also details the FBI's difficulties in investigating the attacks in Libya. For instance, 15 Libyan sources have been killed after offering their cooperation in the investigation.
Will Issa be held responsible for that since he leaked that information to the press?
John Kerry: Darrell Issa's Release Of Raw Libya Cables 'Irresponsible And Inexcusable'
Sure he did.
You stop lying.
Additionally almost every speech about Iraq had the words "9/11" in them.
The Bush administration linked the war in Iraq to the 9/11 attacks over and over again.
That's because 9/11 caused Iraq. Not because anyone was claiming Iraq caused 9/11
Cheney was claiming that Iraqi agents met with Al Qaeda agents in Prague.
And the Bush administration directly linked Al Qaeda to Iraq. In fact they kept claiming to be killing Al Qaeda in Iraq as the war was ongoing.
Most Americans were under the impression that Iraq was behind 9/11. And that was a deliberate strategy by the Bush administration to keep that mindset going.
The PNAC, by the way, which urged an attack on Iraq, had said it would take a Pearl Harbor like event to encourage the invasion.
The same PNAC people which populated the Bush administration.
They found the event.
Iraq was attacked.
Mission Accomplished.
So Osama Bin Laden wasn't responsible?
Iraq wasn't responsible.
No one said Iraq was. The argument was that because of 9/11 we have to change how we look at the world. Especially those regimes that seek WMDs and encourage terrorism.
The left has always lied about us claiming Iraq was responsible for 9/11 when there was nothing like that ever claimed.

Are you insane? Are you honestly willing to argument that no effort whatsoever was made by the Bush administration to associate Saddam Hussein with the perpetrators of 9/11??
Sudan offered OBL to Clinton before 9/11, he was CIC, he did not need congress to authorize him to take OBL, but he didn't and 9/11 happened.
spin all you like, that is what happened.
That's a complete and unmitigated lie.
