Another brilliant press briefing about foriegn policy from W:

"Terrorists have decided to use Turkey as a front," Mr Bush told reporters after speaking to the
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

"Iraq is a front. Turkey is a front. Anywhere the terrorists think they can
strike is a front.

WTC 1993...get a clue.

Dick Morris lambastes Clinton for dropping the ball in the aftermath of the 1993 World Trade Center attack, a significant misstep that had dire consequences. He states, "Then there was Clinton's inability to investigate aggressively the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which meant that it wasn't until 1996 that we learned it was a bin Laden operation. So when the Sudan offered us bin Laden in 1995, we had no grounds to hold him, so we said basically, 'Usama who?' Had the first World Trade Center bombing been a fast-tracked investigation as it should have been, we would have known who and what he was by then". However, Morris presents a stilted picture. It's been reported that Sudan offered up Usama bin Laden on a few occasions, even after 1995. Intelligence expert Mansoor Ijaz avers that the US was afforded opportunities to grab bin Laden with Sudan's help between 1996 and 1998.
