There were terrorists training in Iraq prior to our invasion of that country, said retired U.S. Army Lt. Gen. John Bruce Blount, former chief of staff of Allied Forces Southern Europe, in a phone conversation on Friday. No question about it. There also were many things Saddam was doing money, passports, visas, you name it to further the terrorists ability to operate in other places throughout the world.Even more disturbing is what U.S. Congressman Joe Wilson (R -S.C.) said to me back in September 2004: If this is what we know, imagine what we dont know.
Not only that, but what IS known, and the MSM fails to report....

It has been evident from the beginning that Iraq had intimate ties to Al Qaeda.
It is also evident that the authorization given the president by Congress on 18 Sep 01 included anyone who provided any type of aid or comfort whatsoever to terrorists.
The Iraq War is perfectly just, perfectly legal, and perfectly necessary.

Now even the most ardent anti-war libs acknowledge (or at least don't deny) that Hussein tried to have Bush I assassinated in the early nineties. Wouldn't an act like that signal to the war critics that Hussein was a wild beast who could not be contained by sanctions? That he would do whatever he could to strike back at the U.S. via terrorist surrogates? I guess the libs prefer to hide their heads in the sand and DENY, DENY, DENY.
