I ran across this last week and see some relevance , Clinton did not kill Bin Laden when he had the chance because he wanted to be morally superior to him .

So over 3000 people were killed because of that decision but at least he feels morally superior. Sounds about right.[/quote]
Yes and he did the right thing too

Wrong. He as an American President has one duty above all others. To serve and protect the American people. Admittedly he didn’t know what that his decision would cost lives, but hindsight proves it to be a bad decision. IF he had to kill 100 Afghan civilians to stop 9/11, then that would be an easy choice looking back. To the President, American lives should be more important than any other countries citizens lives.

It’s not clear that killing UBL prior to 9/11 would have prevented a large scale terrorist attack on US soil. Al-Qaeda’s organizational structure does not make decapitation a decisive victory.

Not only that for his theory that Clinton was wrong because he had no ability to see the future is bumping bizarre .
Probably every decision of history could have been improved with hind sight

No I am saying that because we know what happened, you cant call it the right the decision. You can pretty much say that it was the wrong one. But as Bismark said nothing is quite that cut and dry when dealing with matters over there and it might not have done any good. But given what we know now, not taking OBL out as when he had the chance was the wrong decision. I was merely contradicting you saying he made the right decision, which is horseshit. [/quote]
With Hind Sight (ABILITY TO SEE INTO THE FUTURE ) all present decisions would be wrong . Every consequence could have a better scenario [/quote]
Oh, I get it now. You don’t know what hind sight is. That’s where the confusion comes in. Shouldn’t be surprised, you are completely confused and don’t realize it in almost every thread your in. Hind-sight is simply reflecting upon a situation after that situation has passed. Foresight is closer to seeing into the future but still not really the same thing.
And speak for yourself on having never made a correct decision. I have made some pretty good decisions that work out pretty well for me. I could see why you would think that though.
