Clinton Rejected Sudan's 1996 Offer Of Bin Lauden Because In The U.S. Civil Courts Lacked Evidence To Convict Him

Stupid Democrat presidential nominee Barack Obama is  trying to blame the
Bush government for letting bin Laden escape into Waziristan Pakistan.
Obama talking real tough says that if he becomes president he will force our
ally, nuclear Pakistan to "give up" bin Laden (who very probably is dead)
else the U.S will invade Pakistan. This saber rattling  is for an
undertaking be far more difficult and dangerous than striking Iran.

The fact is that during the Clinton Democrat administration in the 1990s,
years before 9/11 Osama bin Laden was offered to the U.S. but the offer was
rejected. The reason for this was that during the trial of the Blind Sheik.
After the the first WTC  attack in 1992 the captured Muslim terrorists
were entitled to an American civil trial. This was costly for the U.S. as
during the proceedings much valuable information had to be released by U.S.
agencies (CIA, FBI, Pentagon etc) in order to get a conviction.

The Clinton administration would have to (because of its of the Supreme
Courts foolish  activism) give Osama a civil trial. And it felt it did not
have enough evidence to convict him on terrorist conspiracy.

The Patriot Act came too late to allow for the U.S. government to deal
effectively with bin Laden and other top Muslim terrorists through military
law.
But now this act has been eviscerated by foolish liberal-Democrat judges on
the Supreme court that has ruled that terrorist enemies of the U.S., no
matter
where is in the world they are captured are entitled to habeas corpus and
civil trials in the U.S. Imagine if the U.S. government were handcuffed like
this during
WW II and after. All Nazis and captured German troops would have had to be
tried in the U.S.--defended by lawyers.
