I repeat, Clinton was never offered Osama by the Sudan. This lie and myth was started by the rightwing after 9-11 in order to try and blame Clinton for a terrible catastrophe that happened on Bush's watch while Bush was ignoring terrorist threats. In actuality, if there was any offer at all, it never reached Washington DC or Clinton, it was very low-level, it was not considered seriously, and back in 1995-1996 or whatever it was the US government had no solid intel Osama Bin LAden was responsible for any bombings. In fact this was not proven until 1998. After that, Clinton immediately went to war against Al Qaida. And by war I mean 150 cruise missiles, which is a ton of firepower. And guess what? At the time, many on the far right mocked Clinton for it, even made fun of him. What is true is that in the mid 90's Osama was becoming a person of interest, a serious suspect, and was starting to be closely monitored. Alarm bells were ringing but there was no prof yet that Al Qaida had done anything but make threats.
