Ahhh... Moby... you are wrong again. He was offered to us by Sudan. At that time Clinton felt we had nothing on him legally and turned down their offer. Kind of fucked up huh... treating international terrorists in the same legal terms as a lawyer looking to prosecute someone for shoplifting.
That's not exactly true. Sudan offered to turn him over to the Saudi's. We tried to get the Saudi's to take him (granted, we didn't pressure as much as we should have). They refused. We gave up. We did not turn down the offer.

Either way, Sudan wasn't exactly high on our list, anyway. Do we trust them? Should we trust Iran now? What about Libya?
