Clinton had several opportunities to assassinate or arrest the *******

In fact, he's on record (audiotape) as saying that he didn't know under
what legal grounds he could hold him when the Sudanese offered to hand
him
over.

Why don't we just overlook the 75 cruise missiles?

"Mr. Clinton took the politically safe path by treating the February 1993
bombing of the World Trade Center as a criminal matter rather than the
terrorist attack that it really was. As a result, he shut the CIA out of the
investigation. Administration blundering enabled Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, a
top bin Laden aide who coordinated the September 11 attacks, to escape
capture in Qatar. The Clinton administration refused offers by the
government of Sudan to turn over bin Laden and objected to efforts by the
Northern Alliance - the anti-Taliban coalition in Afghanistan - to
assassinate the terrorist leader. Mr. Clinton refused several offers by
Sudan to take custody of two terrorists wanted in the August 1998 bombings
of American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. On three occasions in 1999 and
2000, Mr. Clinton deferred or hesitated to launch missile strikes against
bin Laden. This is but a partial listing of instances documented by Mr.
Miniter in which the Clinton administration passed up opportunities to kill
bin Laden and/or weaken his terror network."
