Laden was just minutes behind bid to kill Bill Clinton

Osama Bin Laden-controlled terrorists came within minutes of assassinating former US president Bill Clinton during his 1996 Philippines visit, a new book has revealed.
Bill Clinton was saved shortly before his car was due to drive over a bridge in Manila where a bomb had been planted.
The attack came during Clinton's visit to the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Manila in 1996.
He was scheduled to visit a local politician, his route taking him across a bridge in central Manila.
But as Clinton's motorcade was about to set off, secret service officers received a "crackly message in one earpiece" saying intelligence agents had picked up a message suggesting an attack was imminent.
