So we really DO have Clinton to thank for the loss of the WTC.

Totally mind boggling.


I don't think Clinton is totally in the clear here but it is a bit much to say we have him to thank for the loss of the WTC.

1 - At the time we did not have enough evidence to convict Osama. If he was extradited to the US we might have had to let him go if he stood trial.

2 - Even if we did convict him, or just quietly kill him once we got our hands on him, its quite possible that Al-Qaida could have planned the attack without him. (However I guess its also possible that they would not have done so. It's hard to be sure with these "what if" questions.)
