Yet Another Osama-Offer Turned Down


Yep, there's a report now that Clinton and the boys turned down yet another Osama-Offer in November 2000 (hat tip JunkYardBlog). Absolutely amazing. How many more of these were there that haven't bubbled to the surface? Here's a bit:

ZDF television quoted Kabir Mohabbat, an Afghan-American businessman, as saying he tried to broker a deal between the Americans and the purist Islamic Taliban rulers of Afghanistan, who were sheltering bin Laden and his al Qaeda network.

He quoted the Taliban foreign minister, Mullah Wakil Ahmed Mutawakil, as saying: "You can have him whenever the Americans are ready. Name us a country and we will extradite him."

A German member of the European Parliament, Elmar Brok, confirmed to Reuters that he had helped Mohabbat in 1999 to establish initial contact with the Americans.

Amazing. Give it a read.
