And Ronald Reagan funded Bin Laden in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union.
Yes, Reagan did furnish the Freedom Fighters a few Billion Dollars (Congress also approved the CIA program) to fight the Soviets as we were in a Cold War with the Soviets as well..
But it should not have happened again.
When Bin Laden turned against the U.S. and formed Al Queda, there was no excuse for Clinton to allow Bin Laden to become as powerful as he did.
After the fact, Clinton knew what Bin Laden did to the USA and let him continue his shenanigans.
