Osama Bin Laden was not proven to be guilty until 1998 for the African embassy bombings. Clinton made a very forceful retaliation once that was known. 150 Cruise Missiles is a lot of firepower. And there were other covert efforts as well.

By contract, Osama was not proven to beb behind the USS Cole attack until Feb. 2001 when Bush was in office. Bush did absolutely nothing to retaliate for that more serious attack (in Africa it was mostly Africans outside the embassies killed, not Americans) absolutely nothing.

Bush has a lot of explaining to do why he was totally AWOL on terrorism and ignored all the warnings, including those from Clinton's counter-terrorism team. Also since 9-11 what has happened? Bush has basically let Osama Bin Laden go. No apparent concern whatsoever to catch him. Why not? And why didn't Bush send the requested troops to Tora Bora? Is Bush protecting OBL for the Saudis? Sure seems like it.
