COLE TRAGEDY HIGHLIGHTS FOLLY OF CLINTON-GORE STRATEGY
Friday,October 27,2000

By BOB McMANUS
Meanwhile, news reports suggest the only people in Aden
harbor earlier this month who were unaware of what was
about to happen to USS Cole were the warship's crew.

Service in the armed forces is, by definition, about accepting
personal risk for a higher purpose. In that respect, there are
never any guarantees.

Still, it appears that Cole apparently was ordered to Aden for
refueling because Clinton administration cutbacks meant
there was no fleet oiler available for at-sea replenishment.

Thus, at the very least, the bombing underscores the
foolishness of the official Clinton-Gore
two-simultaneous-war strategy.

It also exposes Al Gore's contention that America's military
is "the strongest in the world" for the dissemblance that it
really is.
