This obvious link between Al Q and Saddam will NOT be reported in Socialist/Marxist ENABLING main stream media. You probably won't even see this report on the Fox News Network.

I'm sorry, but the neocommunists traitors know and have assured us that there is no connection between OBL, 9/11, or Saddam. It is disrespectful to even suggest otherwise even as they are spending Saudi money demonstrating in Washington and San Francisco.

I just ran across these revealing words from Saddam:

"If you use pressure, we will deploy pressure and force. We know that you can harm us although we do not threaten you. But we too can harm you. Everyone can cause harm according to their ability and their size. We cannot come all the way to you in the United States, but individual Arabs may reach you."

Thanks for posting this. We'll never see it in the NYT, et al.

Dog - check out the connections between Iraq and AQ.

And the reason Salim is treated as a common criminal instead of being turned over to the CIA is ...

We need to work on our laws...

Any aggravated assault with a deadly weapon that results in permanent and debilitating brain damage should be treated as equal to the commission of a murder. Especially if the intent to commit murder is provable, and the suspect botched it.

In light of Zawahiti's apparent well timed demise on his balcony in Afghanistan :

Detailing his activities with the alleged terrorist organizations in the Middle East and Africa, (Ali) Mohamed said that during those activities he "understood that I was working with al Qaeda, [Usama] bin Laden, Abu Hafs [and] Abu Ubaidah, and that al Qaeda had a shura council which included Abu Hajer al Iraqui." Mohamed told the judge that in the early 1980s he became involved with the Egyptian Islamic Jihad organization and in the 1990s was introduced to al Qaeda through the Egyptian organization. In the early 1990s Ayman Al Zawihiri made two visits to the United States to raise funds for Islamic Jihad, Mohamed said, and he helped Zawihiri do that. Zawihiri was also indicted in the bombing but remains at large, as does bin Laden.
