First of all, the Propaganda used by the Bush administration wasn't skillfull. While extensive and aided by media cooperationm it was lazily conceived had more holes than swiss cheese. Unfortunately, the American public was easily. fooled.
As far as Clinton's involvement goes, as far as I know it is quite typical of American presidents. JFK might have done the same thing, it's not unlikely. Still Clinton worked a lot harder to stop terror when it cropped up than Bush. Americans just seem to have a problem with long-term prevention.
Also, I wanted to talk about the idea that Israel might profit, and in fact have intentionally influenced, American policy. Frankly, I think it's more likely that Israel is controlled by the US, because they'd be dead if there weren't any weapons shipment for even a month. Noam Chomsky has written extensively on this in some of his books.
