You Might Not Remember 1987......
but,
I had forgotten all of this. Do you
remember when the senators were giving Ollie North such a
bad time? This brings it all into perspective doesn't
it? Have a great day.
Do you remember 1987......
Thought you
might be interested in this forgotten bit of
information.........
It
was 1987! At a lecture the other day they were
playing an old news video of
Lt.Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra
hearings during the Reagan
Administration.
There was Ollie in front of God and country getting
the
third degree, but what he said was stunning!
He was being drilled by a
senator, 'Did you not recently spend close to
$60,000 for a home security
system?'
Ollie replied, 'Yes, I did, Sir.'
The senator
continued, trying to get a laugh out of the
audience, 'Isn't that just a little
excessive?'
'No, sir,' continued Ollie.
'No? And why not?' the
senator asked.
'Because the lives of my family and I were
threatened,
sir.'
'Threatened? By whom?' the senator
questioned.
'By a
terrorist, sir' Ollie answered.
'Terrorist? What terrorist could
possibly scare you that much?'
'His name is Osama bin Laden, sir' Ollie
replied.
At this point the senator tried to repeat the name,
but
couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then
probably couldn't. A couple
of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator
continued. Why are you so
afraid of this man?' the senator asked.
'Because, sir, he is the most
evil person alive that I know of', Ollie answered.
'And
what do you recommend we do about him?' asked the
senator.
'Well, sir,
if it was up to me, I would recommend that an
assassin team be formed to
eliminate him and his men from the face of the
earth.'
The senator
disagreed with this approach, and that was all that
was shown of the clip.
By
the way, that senator was Al Gore!
Also:
Terrorist
pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in
Israel
in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and
imprisoned him. As part of the
Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993,
Israel had to agree to release
so-called 'political prisoners.'
However, the Israelis would not release
any with blood on their hands. The American
President at the time, Bill Clinton,
and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher,
'insisted' that all prisoners be
released.
Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked
us by
flying an airplane into Tower One of the
World Trade
Center . This was reported
by many of the American TV networks at the time
that the terrorists were first
identified.
It
was censored in the US from all
later
reports.
