Les, the article is only reinforcing the disclosure in a book written by an former FBI Agent that this administration decided not to act diligently against Bin Laden ....... due to the business dealings with Saudi Arabi wealthy people of core Republican party memebers.

The U.S. government, it turns out, knew much more
than previously disclosed about bin Laden.
But it didn’t know what to do with the
considerable intelligence it was amassing as
one of the CIA’s most promising and
innovative top-secret operations in years got
caught in the grinder of the Washington
bureaucracy.

The drones were grounded less than two
months after they took to the air. They
returned to the skies of Afghanistan only after
the destruction of the World Trade Center
swept away most of the internal misgivings
about risky missions and the use of lethal
force.

.......and reinforce my suspicion that profits and Bin Laden family interest in the Carlyle Group were more important than US Citizen lives. Clinton is an angel if compared with this administration.
