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!


Continuing . . .
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 American TV networks
at the time that the terrorists were first identified.



However, it was censored in the US
from all later reports.


If you agree that the American public
should be made aware of this fact, pass this on.





This has not been broken since 9/11/01, please keep it going...

This has been kept alive and moving since 9/11. In memory of all those who
perished this morning; the passengers and the pilots on the

United Air and AA flights, the workers in the World Trade Center and the
Pentagon, and all the innocent bystanders. Our prayers go out to the friends
and families of the deceased.
