I can tell you what it doesn't mean: that Saddam and counter-terrorism units. You have no evidence that the training camp is for counter-terrorism units. No amount of floundering is going to change that fact.

I have offered an alternative hypothesis that will remain as or more credible as your hypothesis until you can explain the benefit al-Queda realized by cooperating with Saddam Hussein by sharing operational information, which is a significant deviation from the SOP of a terrorist group.

Al-Queda is not Iran, and this is not 1980. All you do when you call me ignorant without actually bothering to give any reasoning why what I said was untrue is show yourself to be full of shit.

Al-Queda and Iran represent the same type of threat -- Islamic fundamentalism. The fact that you don't appear to understand the connection speaks to your ignorance on this issue.

Seeing as you have yet to answer my question, you really have no room to complain.

I have answered your questions repeatedly. Your discomfort with my answers does not alter that reality.

"I have offered an alternative hypothesis that will remain as or more credible as your hypothesis until you can explain the benefit al-Queda realized by cooperating with Saddam Hussein by sharing operational information, which is a significant deviation from the SOP of a terrorist group."

You mean you want it explained to you AGAIN? Somehow, the fact that you're slow on the uptake doesn't surprise me. Try re-reading posts #60, #65, and #38 a couple dozen times. If you still can't understand it, then just admit that you're too stupid to be debating politics and stop wasting FR's bandwidth.

"Al-Queda and Iran represent the same type of threat -- Islamic fundamentalism. The fact that you don't appear to understand the connection speaks to your ignorance on this issue."

The only ignorance here is your pathetic over-simplification of middle east politics. You're too ignorant to understand that things have changed since 1980 (before America was enemy #1, before a little thing called Desert Storm) and you're too ignorant to grasp the differences between Iran and Al-Queda (hint: One is a nation, the other is a terrorist organization).

"I have answered your questions repeatedly. Your discomfort with my answers does not alter that reality."

No, you never answered the question that I asked you in response to your question, and it is no more of an inappropriate waste of time than yours.
