Washington has claimed that the group, Ansar al-Islam, connects Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein to Al Qaeda. The Kurds also say Ansar could be an obstacle in any U.S.-led offensive on Saddam through the north.

A ground assault against Ansar, using Kurdish forces, was also being prepared and could start soon after Friday night's strike, said a high-level official of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, speaking on condition of anonymity.

But there is no proof that Iraq has anything to do with Al Qaeda! < /sarcasm >

[Beck_isright]

Impossible. This story is a CIA fabrication. Hillary and Schumer both said along with Tom Daschole that there was no proof of a link to terrorism.

"Pentagon officials said Friday night they had no information about a strike on Ansar."

A CIA shot from Predators?

funny

[knak]

wonder if they snap, crackle or just pop?

[concerned about politics]

But....but....the left says Saddam is a man of peace. America is the enemy!
If Iraq really has Al Quata, just like our President said, why, the Democrat politicians would look really stupid right now.

By golly, they really do look stupid right now. Go figure!

[Mister Baredog]

But, the report adds, "There is no hard evidence to suggest that Ansar al-Islam is more than a minor irritant in local Kurdish politics."

Yea I believe they assasinated a few Kurdish leaders a couple of weeks ago,minor irritant?

[Calpernia]

>>>the Democrat politicians would look really stupid right now

Anyone else 'get the feeling' that the anthrax that showed up in Daschles office may be the equivalent of the Italian mafia sending a 'marked target' a horse head?

[Teetop]

Should have dropped the MOAB on them & then have some combat photographer taking video of them all stumbling out of their holes bleeding from every oraface in their body.

[Frank_2001]

Good news! Let's capture a couple of them alive though, so they can fill in the details of the AQ connection...

[FreeTheHostages]

It's a good thing.

It won't surprise me if we capture Bin Laden in Iraq in the coming days.
