There's an excellent documentary on Osama bin Laden that ran on PBS last week:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/binladen/

They delve into bin Laden's origins, connections to the embassy bombings in Africa, and 
our bombing of the pharmaceutical plant in Sudan.

It's very interesting to see Clinton's deputy National Security Advisor, Sandy Berger, announcing that we're bombing the pharmaceutical plant because we KNOW it's being used to produce VX nerve gas - and then watching him start backing up when being interviewed later - he rolls it all the way back to soemthing like  "we think that the pharmaceutical plant was producing a chemical that may ( or may not ) have been used to produce some kind of nerve gas" ;)

Another good section explains how we were monitoring bin Laden in the Sudan, where we could see him and touch him.  Then someone in the US decides that we should kick him out of the Sudan.  The Sudanese government says, "hey, leave him here, if you want him, you can get him".  But no, we drove  him from Sudan, and he immediately left for Afghanistan, where we can't see him, can't touch him, but can damn sure feel him.

One more observation: Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed the complete lack of any comment whatsoever from the NSA during the past two weeks?

Talk to ya,
Rowland
