United States Marines may have uncovered "smoking-gun" evidence supporting one of the coalition's justifications for war in Iraq.

The Los Angeles Times reports soldiers from the 2nd Battalion, 23rd Regiment found what appears to be a large-scale terrorist training camp for the Palestinian Liberation Front, as well as documents indicating Iraq recently sold weapons to the terror group for its fight against Israel.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of those Palestinians we're fighting in Iraq were from the PLF, and others were from the Arab Liberation Front.

Interesting read. I knew about some of it but not that they were running such an elaborate camp. We will have some interesting info to help with the war on terror.

They need to videotape all these finds and document them professionally. The terror training camps, the thousands of chem. suits/masks, the illegal rockets, the Iraqi people being oppressed by Fedayeen, the torture chambers found in hospitals and police stations, etc. Put together a documentary and put it out there for the world to see.

I agree .I remember the first time I saw pictures of the Nazi death camps.I read as much as possible to try to understand how it could happen. I hope it is presented in the presence of all at the UN.I want to see heads hung in shame. Perhaps they have no shame.

There is no question about that at all. The very first person CONFIRMED killed in the 1st hour of bombings was a top lieutenant for PLF.

Don't forget that Fatah announced last week that it had sent "hundreds" of it's operatives to Iraq to kill Coalition troops. Let's see, who runs Fatah???...sounds like the PLO officially declared war on the US to me. Fatah is it's largest faction.
