Iraq conspired with Bin Laden to produce WMDs...according to Richard Clarke

Washington Post

[Jim_Curtis]

Clarke said U.S. intelligence does not know how much of the substance was produced at El Shifa or what happened to it. But he said that intelligence exists linking bin Laden to El Shifa's current and past operators, the Iraqi nerve gas experts and the National Islamic Front in Sudan.

But he said that intelligence exists linking bin Laden to El Shifa's current and past operators, the Iraqi nerve gas experts and the National Islamic Front in Sudan.

But how can this be? The Democrats (and therefore the mainstream media) have been saying for WEEKS that there never were any WMD's. They're saying that Bush lied to us in order to get his hands on all that Iraqi oil!

I just don't know WHO to believe anymore! /sarcasm

[MizSterious]

Yes. CBS was quite proud of itself for "getting Clinton elected" via the 60 Minutes "interview" with Bill and Hill. They'd love to do it again, with Kerry. (Or anyone but Bush.)

[Jim_Curtis]

Mansoor Ijaz just mentioned it on Laura Ingraham's show. I hope Rush gets this. There are at least four large points to made about all of this:

Clarke has Iraq involved in producing WMDs as late as December 1999

Clarke linked Iraq to Bin Laden in cooperation to create WMDs.

Clarke claims it "would have been derelict in his (Clinton's) duties if he didn't blow up the facility." based on the evidence at hand. How is it that Bush would not have been derelict had he failed to act?

If Clarke was wrong, he is a crackpot without any credibility.

BUMP! Somehow Kerry and Clark reminds me of this joke.

With all the sadness and trauma of today's world,
it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person which almost went unnoticed last week.

Larry La Prise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey," died peacefully at age 93. The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in. . . .and then the trouble started.

Let's see how the Liberal-Socialist quislings at SeeBS jumps on *this* now, eh? :o)

BEE-AUU-TII-FULL work, Wallaby.

...this Bud's for you, my friend.

This is a great find.

Thanks for posting it!

Please do all of us a favor and store the whole article on your hard disk or another server.

We can't use whole articles on Free Republic, but others can. This article will probably disappear now that it has been posted.

The Goron's invention of the internet continues to derail the rats when they try to revise history, spin it and lie about it.

[BushisTheMan]

Have you ever heard Mansoor Ijaz so spitting mad in your whole life? He wanted to curse (and even said so).

He was ticked big time. He said that if he and Clark were face to face he would have him backed down in just 1 minute.

I believe Monsoor

You guys have pulled together the most important pieces of info in the battle for the truth in the coming election.

Clarke is a dispicable human being, playing fast and loose with the truth, for personal gain, via book sales.

What these articles lay out is that there was an immediate, sure build up to taking out al-Qaeda, as a policy of the Bush Admininstration.

And it was no "checking off boxes" pseudo plan, as in the Clinton Admin.

The liberal media is going to have a cow now.

Why? This will never see the light of most newspapers.

[Indy Pendance]

Thanks, this is an excellent, but long, read regarding the Clinton adminstration's knowledge of terrorism originally written 12-30-01.

MISSED SIGNALS: Many Say U.S. Planned for Terror but Failed to Take Action (Clarke)

[Blue Scourge]

Interesting...

on a side note...did anyone catch O'reily last night when they were talking about the Clinton/Sudan/Bin Laden deal.

They took him to task for it.

[happygrl]

I'm baffled as to why AQ and other terrorists did not attack us during his [Clinton's] watch.

There were intentions and plans to do so.

Remember the Millenium attacks which didn't happen because of bungling and a sharp Border Agent in Washington state ? That was intended to be just as shocking as 9-11, if not in scale, then just because it would have been the first time that the US was attacked by a foreign power since Pearl Harbor (leaving out the Oklahoma City bombing, which in my mind, is still a question).

Intelectual honesty is antithetical to liberalism.

[rwfromkansas]

very interesting

[rwfromkansas]

What connections to Kerry?

He refused to endorse Kerry last night on Charlie Rose and claimed to be above party politics, so this would be interesting.

[Betaille]

He is currently teaching a class along with Kerry's Foreign Policy advisor.

[rwfromkansas]

On Charlie Rose last night, Clarke said that claim of being able to get OBL out of Sudan was a lie.

What a snake Clarke is.

[Blue Scourge]

One thing I liked about O'reily's segment was the quoted several sources inside and outside the former administration that said it was indeed true that the Sudan offered him to us 3 times.

On "60 Minutes" last Sunday, Clarke said that the rubber dinghy attack was so sophisticated that the United States is absolved of any suspicion of intelligence failure. ……..

ROFL!!
