Because the bombings were of U.S. embassies; embassies are considered 'sovereign
territories' of the countries
that own them, therefore while the embassies were located in the countries of Kenya
and Tanzania, the
embassies themselves are considered U.S. territory. Therefore the bombings were 'on'
U.S. soil, not Kenyan or
Tanzanian.
If the situation was reversed, say the Kenyan embassy in the U.S. was bombed, then it
would be considered a
crime committed not only to, but on, Kenyan territory, and as such those responsible
would be tried in Kenya
by Kenyan authorities. Although in actual practice, one would expect the FBI to be
involved, too...

screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
