I just don't understand why people would make that kind of stuff up and pass it off as being for real rather then pure fiction.....have our standards sunk that low? I guess they have..... so sorry about that and feeling abused right now by the SOB who wrote this lying shit.....wonder if that person is working for Hilary as they would find each other very comfortable.....and she is proof of the sub standards we now accept as normal.... Took a moment to google Ollie north and bi laden. This appeared at Facr Checker
FULL ANSWER The durability of this falsehood is remarkable. North himself debunked it publicly more than seven years ago, and it has been proven false again and again. Yet gullible people keep it going year after year. North is a former Reagan White House national security aide and longtime conservative celebrity. The claim that he warned a congressional committee about bin Laden in 1987 is false on several counts. It isn’t historically plausible, for one thing. _Bin Laden didn’t form al Qaeda until the year following _ (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_depth/7546355.stm#1988) North’s testimony. In 1987 bin Laden was still fighting Soviet troops occupying Afghanistan, with the support of the United States. Furthermore, then-Sen. Al Gore of Tennessee was not even a member of the congressional panel that grilled North during those 1987 televised hearings into the Iran-Contra affair. The full membership of the Senate Select Committee on Secret Military Assistance to Iran and the Nicaraguan Opposition is_ listed on page V of the final report_ (http://books.google.com/books?id=ew_K3auTwEgC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_summary_r&cad=0#PPR3,M1) , and Gore is not among them. So Gore was nowhere near, bill. Sad to say. Throw us another one.

I believed him then, and some thought he and I were both nuts. Even if this has gone around before, it needs to go around again. Do You Remember 1987 ?? Do you remember 1987 when the Senators were giving Ollie North such a bad time? This brings it all into perspective, 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 Sir, I did". 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 Muslim terrorist sir". Ollie answer. "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 the Muslims are trying to take over America and destroy it from the inside out and putting their people into our political offices. "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. Please pass this on! Do Not Break - it is 14 years strong! This has not been broken since 9/11/01, please keep it going. -- -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
