you mean the guy america supplied with training. Yes.

yea man, we used to sip whiskey and smoke cubans on thursday evenings.

Yeah, but I didn't care; nor do I really care now.

I met him at a French Pocket Protector Collectors Covention in Sioux Falls, Iowa.

Yes, I said when I first saw it that I thought it could only be him...I'd heard
and read enough about him and his "goals" to jump to that conclusion.

Situations change Pyro, why even on this forum it's possible that
someone who was formerly an "ally" would now happily snap your spine...

You would never do that to me right?

I knew about The Taliban for a long time but didn't do any research into it until I heard about Commander Massood of the Northern Alliance when I was in grade 9. about a year before 911. I have known about Osama for quite some time. Ever ince he bombed the Embassy's in Africa and the USS Cole bombing.

I only knew that Clinton mentioned him once as a terrorist from Afganistan.

never heard of him before 9/11

he bombed our embassies in africa and the uss cole not to mention clinton could have caught him but decided not to.

I remember 20/20 did a special on him in 2000.
