I agree with the author's conclusion:
"On balance, I'd say that before 1998, the Clinton administration
was negligent about Osama Bin Laden, Afghanistan, and the threat
from terrorism generally. But so were lots of others, including
almost all of those blaming Clinton now. And there's no way to prove
that a higher level of concern would have been substantially likely
to prevent or mitigate what happened on Sept. 11. Clinton could have
done more. But whether it would have made any difference, no one can
really say."
