I have not followed the OBL dispute. If he derided the authentications, I would consider that going to far. If he merely said that he was not sure how you could discount so much of what the CIA says and then grasp hold of these authentications, I suppose he would have a point.
Again, I agree that no one should assert flatly that they were mobile bio- labs. But there was a period where the matter remained in dispute, and people should not have been flatly saying they weren't. Now, I suppose, there is sufficient concensus against to assert it confidently, but not always, so I guess it depends on when this occured.
To assert the facts in that way insinuates that Laura should have been charged, and also that it has some bearing on her so many years later. Since there is insufficient data in anything I have read to tell why she was not charged, and since she was a minor at the time anyway, it smells like a cagey attempt to smear to me.
Having said that, I do not think that bringing up Hillary was the most appropriate rejoinder.
My wife just called. I have to leave. I will take up the rest later....... |
