<<The Clinton/Gore Administration disapproved a VOICE OF AMERICA broadcast condemning the attackon the Cole. A memo from the Executive Secretariat Staff at the State Department stated: The Department of State does not clear on the referenced VOA editorial. This editorial will reach an audience that is caught up in the violence in Israel and the Occupied Territories. The 17 or so dead sailors does not compare to the 100+ Palestinians who have died in recent weeks where we have remained silent. The people that hear this will not see the separation we are trying to make and relate it directly to the violence. Our 17 dead compared to 100 who asked for it. Our 17 dead who wee serving instead of doing suicide shot. Our 17 dead are an abomination to our country. An abomination to the gutting of our armed forces. The USS Cole should have been serviced by a tanker put in port by Clinton. The US should have the latest and the best and the best support. Clinton is to blame.
