Since you seem to refuse to retracted this statement: "The lie about Saddam and Al Qaida won't hunt." One must conclude that you believe that President Clinton blew up the Sudanese chemical plant in 1998, to divert attention from Monica Lewinsky. Further, one must conclude that President Clinton's Defense Secretary lied to the 9/11 Commission when he said: "...That the plant itself had been constructed under the security measures, that the plant had been funded, in part, by the so-called military industrial corporation, that bin Laden had been living there, that he had in fact money that he had put into this military industrial corporation, that the owner of the plant had traveled to Baghdad to meet with the father of the VX program, and that the CIA had found traces of EMTA nearby the facility itself. According to all the intelligence, there was no other known use for EMTA at that time other than as a precursor to VX. Now, I was criticized for that, saying, you didn't have enough. And I put myself in the position of coming before you and having someone like you say to me, "Let me get this straight, Mr. Secretary, we've just had a chemical weapons attack upon our cities or our troops and we've lost several hundred or several thousand. And this is the information which you had at your fingertips. You had a plant that was built under the following circumstances, had you manager that went to Baghdad, you had Osama bin Laden who had funded at least the corporation, and you had traces of EMTA and did you what? You did nothing? Is that a responsible activity on the part of the Secretary of Defense?" And the answer is pretty clear." - William Cohen, former Secretary of Defense cnn.com
