Summary: I know one lie in this book
Comment: The author claims "How the Predator spy plane-which spotted bin Laden three times-was grounded by bureaucratic infighting."
I *work* on the Predator. It was never deployed anywhere near Afghanistan before 9-11.
Heck the rest of the book could be true, but he lost me with something that I know is wrong. He shouldn't lie in public, because someone will always call you out. (In all fairness he could just have a bad source, but that doesn't improve his credibility by much.)

Summary: "Richard Miniter" and lies
Comment: Someone who proclaims to tell the truth about Clinton asserts that Clinton is responsible for all the terror in the world. Since he heard of Clinton being responsible for some terror, he asserts it is the "truth." Well. "Truth" is a strong term. And just because one person has heard something does not make that thing true. Let's consider sources, which are amply footnoted in his book. He claims that because he made so many footnotes, then everything he says must be true. First, his book is not the first to report these fact; the have appeared in the Drudge Report(multiple times) and on the Dennis Miller Show (ditto). Moreover, Sean Hannity, Bush's outspoken supporter, and Bill O'Reilly, Republican Party Spokesman, told me on the record that Clinton was letting terrorists sleep in the Lincoln Bedroom, spotting what they believed was bin Laden three separate times. Other intelligence and Centcom command personnel confirmed the fact. If Miniter wants to contact me to discuss this, I'd be happy to talk to him. I suggest that he reach me through my press guy, Pete Fabio, at (703) 683-5004 ext. 116--so I'm not deluged with calls from people who have not read this review and assume it is a Miniter hit job. For the general readers, I suggest you read the first few pages on Chapter one in the bookstore and I think you'll agree that this is simply another unsupported(and to my mind, very poorly written), unresearched book by someone looking to cash in on the anti-Clinton band-wagon.

Summary: The Predator and "lies"
Comment: Someone who claims he works on the Predator--and he may very well--says that the Predator was never deployed anywhere near Afghanistan prior to 9-11. Since he has not heard of the deployment of two Predators in the Clinton years to Central Asia, he asserts it is a "lie." Well. A "lie" is a strong term. And just because one person has not heard something does not make that thing a falsehood. Let's consider sources, which are amply footnoted in my book. First, my book is not the first to report this fact; it has appeared in the Washington Post (multiple times) and in congressional testimony (ditto). Moreover, Richard Clarke, Clinton's counterterrorism czar, and Sandy Berger, National Security Advisor, told me on the record that two were deployed, spotting what they believed was bin Laden three separate times. Other intelligence and Centcom command personnel confirmed the fact. After one crashed in the late summer of 2000, a bureaucratic blame game grounded the other plane. If this person wants to contact me to discuss this, I'd be happy to talk to him. I suggest that he reach me through my press guy, Peter Robbio, at (703) 683-5004 ext. 116--so I'm not deluged with calls from people who have not read the book and assume it is a Clinton hit job. For the general readers, I suggest that you do not judge a book by its cover, its title, or its publisher. Simply read the first few pages on Chapter one and I think you'll agree that this is the first comprehensive (and to my mind, fair-minded) book on the history of bin Laden's war on America in the Clinton years.
