Sent secret cable accusing Tehran of 1996 Khobar Towers attack, but kept it from public
By John Solomon – The Washington Times – Monday, October 5, 2015
Bill Clinton’s administration gathered enough evidence to send a top-secret communique accusing Iran of facilitating the deadly 1996 Khobar Towers terrorist bombing, but suppressed that information from the American public and some elements of U.S. intelligence for fear it would lead to an outcry for reprisal, according to documents and interviews.
Before Mr. Clinton left office, the intelligence pointing toward Iran’s involvement in the terror attack in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 U.S. servicemen and wounded hundreds was deemed both extensive and “credible,” memos show.
It included FBI interviews with a half-dozen Saudi co-conspirators who revealed they got their passports from the Iranian embassy in Damascus, reported to a top Iranian general and were trained by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard (IRGC), officials told The Washington Times.

Love the chin stroke….trying to affect a ‘deep thinker’ pose…..
Of course he kept that info suppressed. He also had numerous opportunities to take out OBL in the late 90s but didn’t act. This was documented in NYT of all places.
And to think those two grifters might be back in the White House soon.
