(62,325 posts)from the Intel community who worked during that administration on terror. At least one, possibly two of those planned attacks involved hi-jacking planes and had it succeeded would have been WORSE than 9/11. It didn't, because we are told by those working on the issue at that time, 'Clinton took Terror seriously and paid attention to the reports from the Intel Community, starting each day studying those reports and giving the Intel Community the ability to deal with them'.
Bush failed to stop an attack despite 52 warnings that it was likely to happen. Richard Clark believes that had Bush not dismissed the issue, despite warnings from the outgoing Clinton Admin of the seriousness of the issue, it would not have happened.
So to say it could not have been stopped is contradictory to the evidence which includes multiple planned attacks that WERE stopped.
