We hope in
this case what is past is not prologue...
It depends on what the meaning of
the word "path" is
Let us revisit,
for a moment, Bill Clinton's contortive definition of the word
"is." This, of course, was the tiny two-letter term he
wrestled with during his grand jury testimony in 1998 -- a testimony
during which he lied about his sexual relationship with a young intern
named Monica Lewinsky. Yet even as the forensic evidence made his sworn
statements untenable, Clinton refused to 'fess up to what had long since
become fodder for Leno and Letterman.
And now he's at it again.
This week, those
legacy-starved Clintonistas, reacting to an ABC docudrama called
"The Path to 9/11," demonstrated that they've not changed a
bit since 1998. The five-hour, two-part television series was a calumny,
they cried, since it depicted eight years of Clintonian negligence and
malfeasance. This time, we suppose, it depends on what the meaning of
the word "path" is...
In a fiery public letter
to ABC that none-too-subtly threatened to pull the network's broadcast
license, a handful of Democrat senators charged that "presenting
such deeply flawed and factually inaccurate misinformation to the
American public and to children would be a gross miscarriage of your
corporate and civic responsibility to the law." We have to ask,
does "inaccurate misinformation" mean it's true, or what?
The Democratic National
Committee warned the Demo faithful that "'The Path to 9/11' is
actually a bald-faced attempt to slander Democrats and revise history
right before Americans vote in a major election. ... The miniseries,
which was put together by right-wing conservative writers, relies on the
old GOP playbook of using terrorism to scare Americans. [It] mocks the
truth and dishonors the memory of 9/11 victims to serve a cheap, callous
political agenda. It irresponsibly misrepresents the facts and
completely distorts the truth."
Having gotten the memo,
the New York Times editorial board was just as quick out the
gate, writing, "When attempting to recreate real events on screen,
you do not show real people doing things they never did." If only
such muscular statements were to guide the news content of the Gray Lady
-- Jayson Blair, call your office. The uber-Leftist Nation
magazine, ever-present to protect us from ourselves, warned readers that
David Cunningham, director of "The Path to 9/11," may be a
part of that great conspiracy that threatens us all -- evangelical
Christianity. "Cunningham is no ordinary Hollywood
journeyman," says The Nation. "He is in fact the son of
Loren Cunningham, founder of the right-wing evangelical group Youth With
a Mission..."
"The Path to
9/11" was so offensive, in fact, that Team Clinton wasn't content
to let their attack dogs do the dirty work for them. Referring to a
scene in which she alerts the Pakistanis to an upcoming U.S. strike on
Osama bin Laden, Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright called
her portrayal "false and defamatory." Clinton White House aide
Bruce Lindsey, currently at the helm of the William J. Clinton
Foundation, also scolded ABC: "It is unconscionable to mislead the
American public about one of the most horrendous tragedies our country
has ever known."
Disgraced former National
Security Advisor Sandy "Socks" Berger complained that the film
"flagrantly misrepresents my personal actions." Unfortunately,
we'll never know exactly what Berger's "personal actions"
were, since his last official act before the 9/11 Commission was to
admit to removing classified documents and handwritten notes from the
National Archives on two occasions in 2003. Berger destroyed these vital
documents, which pertained to the Clinton administration's record on
terrorism. He then pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor for his actions and
was stripped of his security clearances.
In a letter speaking for
Clinton, Lindsey and Clintonista lawyers demanded the network "pull
the drama." "The content of this drama," they claimed,
"is factually and incontrovertibly inaccurate and ABC has the duty
to fully correct all errors or pull the drama entirely." ABC
responded by announcing a disclaimer that would call the miniseries a
"dramatization" containing "fictionalized scenes."
Finally, even Bill
Clinton himself came out swinging, but like his impeachment testimony
eight years ago, his self-defense quickly turned to self-parody. "I
just want people to tell the truth, you know, and not pretend it's
something it's not."
Truth, as we know, is not
exactly the lingua franca of the Clinton crowd. So, assuming that
we know what the meaning of "is" is, what is the truth?
For starters, eight long
years passed between the first World Trade Center attack in 1993 -- one
month into Bill Clinton's first term in office -- and the devastating
attacks of September 11, 2001, eight months after the end of the Clinton
presidency. But while some blame for failing to prevent the attacks must
be assumed by the Bush administration, we must also remember that, as
journalist and intelligence expert Ronald Kessler concluded, it was not
a matter of connecting the dots. "The truth was that there were no
dots to connect." The reason for this inability to connect the dots
-- that is, the absence of actionable intelligence against Osama bin
Laden and al-Qa'ida -- lies squarely at the feet of the Clinton
administration.
Bill Clinton has admitted
as much. Speaking to the Long Island Association in 2002, he confessed
to turning down an opportunity to take custody of bin Laden: "He
was expelled from Saudi Arabia in 1991, then he went to Sudan, and we'd
been hearing that the Sudanese wanted America to start dealing with them
again. They released him. At the time, 1996, he had committed no crime
against America, so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on
which to hold him, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against
America."
Perhaps Mr. Clinton
forgot that bin Laden had in 1995 been named a conspirator in the first
WTC attack. Later, in his testimony before the 9/11 Commission, Clinton
dismissed his own statement as "inappropriate" -- which is to
say, "truthful."
The 9/11 Commission's own
conclusions on the Clinton administration's accountability are equally
telling. In 1998, the year that al-Qa'ida bombed our embassies in Kenya
and Tanzania, U.S. assets had the opportunity to capture bin Laden at
his Tarnak Farms compound in Afghanistan. According to the Commission's
report, "Before it was canceled, [senior CIA operations officer in
Afghanistan, Gary] Schroen described it as the 'best plan we are going
to come up with to capture [bin Laden] while he is in Afghanistan and
bring him to justice.' No capture plan before 9/11 ever again attained
the same level of detail and preparation."
The Commission Report
also asserts that Clinton "effectively relied on the CIA" for
counterterrorism planning, even though Clinton stopped receiving the
CIA's Presidential Daily Brief and rarely, if ever, communicated with Director
George Tenet. Further, while the Clinton administration continued to
treat terrorism at home as merely a matter of law enforcement, "the
relationship between the FBI Director Louis Freeh and the President was
nearly nonexistent."
Retired Air Force Lt.
Col. Robert "Buzz" Patterson, who carried the "nuclear
football" during the Clinton years, says Clinton missed not one but
several opportunities to capture or kill Osama bin Laden. According to
Patterson, who consulted on "The Path to 9/11," Clinton's
failures to act against bin Laden directly facilitated a decade of
terrorist attacks against the U.S. leading up to 9/11. "[W]e could
have prevented the bombing of the U.S.S. Cole, we could have prevented
9/11 and we could have prevented the bombings of the embassies in Africa
if President Clinton had taken one of these opportunities."
Patterson continued, "We had eight chances at least to either nab
bin Laden or to kill him."
Bill Clinton's cowardice
all along the path to 9/11 is clearly a disgrace -- perhaps even a
criminal dereliction. Let's just pray that the events
of September 11, 2001, mark the end of the "Clinton
legacy" on terrorism.
