CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS ON CLINTON:
There probably was not a delegate present who would not have been primed to laugh at a George Dubya “cowboy” joke. Yet Mr Clinton’s most notorious foreign policy action was to launch a flight of cruise missiles into the outskirts of the city of Khartoum, destroying the Al-Shifa pharmaceutical factory on the pretence (now acknowledged to have been false) it was a chemical weapons facility. How could such an atrocity have been committed?
Because Mr Clinton did not even demand an inspection, did not consult the UN or Congress, and over-ruled Joint Chiefs of Staff, CIA and State Department.
