Clinton Says CIA Scrapped A Pre-9/11 Plan To Kill Bin Laden
He told John Catsimatidis's radio show the agency had located bin Laden but called off the strike to avoid civilian deaths nearby.
- Clinton made the claim on WABC's Cats Roundtable, hosted by John Catsimatidis.
- He said the CIA had located Bin Laden before the September 11, 2001 attacks.
- Clinton said the strike was called off to avoid killing innocent civilians nearby.
Why it matters: A claim about a canceled strike on Bin Laden rests on one man's memory, not a document.
