Homeland security didn't start until after that. Osama bin Laden could have been taken out when Clinton was President and he refused to do so. Oliver North said then that bin Laden would cause issues and he did. We should have let Oliver have the go ahead to.blow him up.

I know. Homeland Security was created after the missed intelligence that could have stopped 911.

You're right about Clinton. I recall a program that had a CIA operative say he had the opportunity to assassinate Bin Laden and requested permission to do so. Not only was he refused, but he also faced disciplinary actions for wanting to assassinate him.

I remember Ollie North wanting a security fence around his house because of Bin Laden. He got a lot of ridicule for it.
