oliver north and osama bin laden...wayback machine...I need help...
Okay, someone in my office told me that he just got an email stating that oliver north testified to the fact that he was protecting his family with a 60k security system from the most dangerous man in the world osama bin laden.
I know snoops debunks this, but is there another source? perhaps a link to the congressional testimony?

Thanks in advance.

4. Why do you need another source...the snopes debunking is definitive
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/north.asp

It contains links to the testimony, and to a letter sent by North himself denying that he ever spoke about Osama bin Laden in 1987.

Further debunking:

9. That's because snopes makes him look like an idiot every single time he forwards a chain mail...
...that's been sent to hell and back.

My brother's like that as well.

8. The real story in this is that North unlawfully used government
money to install the security system in his private home.

A disgrace to the Marine Corps.
