MY SAY: REMEMBER THE USS COLE OCTOBER 12, 2000

On October 12, 2000, jihadists exploded a  boat alongside the USS Cole—a Navy Destroyer—as it was refueling in the Yemeni port of Aden.

The blast ripped a 40-foot-wide hole near the waterline of the Cole, killing 17 American sailors and injuring many more.

President Clinton called the perpetrators “hate filled cowards” and vowed that the incident would not deter his efforts to seek peace between Israel and Yasser Arafat…..rsk
