The Senate Intelligence Committee has found no evidence of links between the regime of Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda.


Mr Bush and Mr Cheney have been making the link for years

Friday's report, issued by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, provides another definitive statement that the assertion is simply not true.

It says that debriefings conducted since the invasion of Iraq "indicate that Saddam issued a general order that Iraq should not deal with al-Qaeda. No post-war information suggests that the Iraqi regime attempted to facilitate a relationship with [Osama] Bin Laden. "Saddam Hussein was distrustful of al-Qaeda... refusing all requests from al-Qaeda to provide material or operational support."

Why stop at Iraq?   Why not just spread "freedom" to the whole world?



Why are we still chasing Iraqi's?

You seem to be getting a bit sarcastic in your old age there Real.

I am getting a bit more Monarchistic, but with a different Monarch. Saddam was a more progressive person and thought the Arab world should move out of the middle ages, while Osama wanted to stick with tradition.

Osama did not want his country producing heroin. He wanted Islamic law, strict Islamic law. Saddam was a totally different character indeed. Even in a Presidential speech a while back, "have met several times since the early 1990s". Those are Bush's words. That was the best he could come up with ?

It happens to be 2007. The latter part of 2007 in fact. The speech may have been in 2005, not sure. Somewhere around there. And because they spoke, Saddam is deposed. Just because they spoke. That is all  it takes I guess, but look at the laws in the US today.

Everybody must just accept what "they" say and raise no questions ? Some free country. Maybe we should take a good look at the "freedom" we are speading around. Something not authorized by the Constitution and totally unnecessary and unwanted.

"Freedom is an illusion because nobody knows how to use it wisely".

The problem with Saddam is that he thought the UN would protect him. But when the US found their boy there to be converting to Euros, they fighured, and rightly so, that he was betraying them. Thus their actions.

If youi had any idea how screwing around with currency exchange would mess with their profits, it would be clear.

And why did NORAD stand down ?

Conspiracy theorist ? I resemble that remark. But there is one more point of truth and logic, some theories are proven true.

I hate to use these two words together, but COME ON. The entire whatever is left of our force to defend our soil cannot stop someone from firing or flying something into the Whitehouse ?

Are you kidding me ? Whatever I believe, however radical I may be, don't they protect themselves ? This has to be a ploy, or a play. Here's a deal for ya. Try to capture or damage the main government building in any "good" country.

When you about to go home you get the plan, the plan to use your homemade weapons, assembilng them on the plane. Try to strike in China, Russia or Israel. Just try it. Try it in England, France, even Germany. Try it anywhere. You might get a public building like the WTC, but you have very little chance of getting their main government buildings.

IMO, there is no way that there was not some degree of government complicity. They hit the Whitehouse ? THINK. The is like taking the king in a game of chess.

That could only be allowed for emotional effect. That is my conclusion. Agree or disagree, that is your choice.
