But my response concerning Clinton's responsibility towards the events of 9/11 did outline a few more items of interest than just the US non-involvement in Afganistan and appeasement of the Taliban.

Bin Ladin was a thorn in the side of the US long before he and the Taliban joined forces in their hatred of the US.

In fact, I think time will tell that the Taliban, evil though they may have already been, were duped by Bin Ladin into an Anti-American position that ultimately led to their downfall.

In short, there was a whole series of Clinton Administration Foreign policy blunders that set the stage for 9/11. Some of them were continued by the Bush administration. But even if the Bush administration had seen it all coming, they could not have reversed what was already in motion when Clinton left office: The towers were doomed and thousands of innocents would die as a result.

I'm sure you disagree...But hey, lets let history be the judge.
