Hard Evidence Finally Links Saddam Hussein's Iraq to 9/11 - Game. Set. Match.



WSJ: Saddam's Files Show 'Direct' 9/11 Link
http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2004/5/27/100047.shtml

Newly uncovered files examined by U.S. military investigators in Baghdad show what is being described as "a direct link" between Saddam Hussein's elite Fedayeen military unit and the terrorist attacks on America on Sept. 11, 2001.

Ahmed Hikmat Shakir, who attended a January 2000 al Qaida summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia where the 9/11 attacks were planned, is listed among the officers on three Fedayeen rosters reviewed by U.S. probers, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

"Our government sources, who have seen translations of the documents, say Shakir is listed with the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel," the paper said.

In a post obtained through Saddam's Mukahbarrat intelligence service, Shakir was stationed at the Iraqi embassy in Kuala Lumpur at the time of the 9/11 planning session.



The Link Between Iraq and Al-Qaeda
http://www.insightmag.com/news/477622.html

Senior investigators and analysts in the U.S. government have concluded that Iraq acted as a state sponsor of terrorism against Americans and logistically supported the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States...

Leitner says "Iraq has been in a proxy war against the U.S. for years and has used al-Qaeda in that war against the United States."


OK, Democrats, liberals and leftists worldwide... Time to eat crow once again. (I won't hold my breath.) You probably don't even know about this news story, though it should be the lead story on all American news outlets.

Striking, direct evidence now links Saddam Hussein's Iraq to the September 11, 2001 attacks on the USA. The Wall Street Journal and Newsmax.com are the only one's reporting it. Drudge? Nowhere to be found. AP? Reuters? Please.

Yes, as it turns out, a "Lieutenant-Colonel" in Saddam Hussein's personal military unit, the Fedayeen, was present at the 9/11 planning sessions in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! You know, the meeting where the only successful attacks on the mainland United States in 150 years was pre-planned by Al Q'aeda terrorists, including Flight 77 hijackers Khalid al Midhar and Nawaz al Hamzi, as well as Ramzi bin al Shibh, the operational planner of the attacks.

Nevermind that Saddam Hussein boasted after the 9/11 attacks about having planned them. Nevermind that he had murals created to commemorate his successful attacks on the United States.

Nevermind that the Czech government confirms to this day that Mohammed Atta met with Iraqi intelligence agents in Prague prior to the 9/11 attacks.

Nevermind that a missing suspect in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing is a former Iraqi soldier who later secured a job at Boston's Logan Airport, where two of the 9-11 hijackers boarded planes they later commandeered and slammed into the World Trade Center.

Nevermind that it was the Fedayeen who setup Salmon Pak, Saddam Hussein's airplane hijacking school located on the outskirts of Baghdad and that a U.S. district court judge in Manhattan ruled in 2002 that Salman Pak played a material role in the devastating Sept. 11 attacks on America.

No, forget about all these "unrelated" and "unproven" allegations against Iraq... Now we have real evidence.

Iraqi agents, working with Al Q'aeda terrorists, attacked the United States on September 11, 2001, killing over 3000 Americans.

Or, maybe not...

So what! It's a sure bet that Saddam, nor Osama, ever put a pair of panties on someone's head.

I bet they did. To each other, one romantic night...

Maybe he attended the meeting, but had drank a lot of iced-tea and had to go to the "little-boys" room a lot.

So, if that was the case, he of course would have no way of knowing what possibly could have occurred.

Hmmm...reminds me of some other story that I heard a while ago. I didn't believe that public official either.

Recently, I heard that that former public official us off his meds and is screaming incessantly about terrorist's civil rights. Next, he will be roaming the streets of a major city talking to buildings and using newspaper as a blanket.

Queen had a song you will recognize: Here is to all of us.

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
The whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose

And we mean to go on and on and on and on

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions

The mainstream Media will ignore this, as usual.

So will the Democrats. It sounds so much better to say Saddam had "no connection", especially when one is trying hard to sabotage our policies in this war and get George Bush defeated.

At least Rush covered one of these stories on his show today. One can only hope that the Bush administration is simply getting all of their ducks in a row for the eventual dot-connection press conference. You know, the one where the media will ignore the point in favor of trying to get Bush to say he's sorry or some such rot.

What’s the chances of this being aired on the evening news?

I wonder if there could be more than one Ahmed Hikmat Shakir in Iraq. We need to find out.

Just for the record, I wanted to reach into the screen an slap that Barron idiot. I cant remember exactly how he put it but he pretty much called you a "bad black man" because you are a conservative. I almost went through the roof.

I knew it wasn't an AlGore quote, but the poster at #38 seemed to take it at face value. I asked for attribution to set the record straight.

Thanks for doing that.

wonderful. thanks for these key links between 9/11 and Saddam.

rest assured the media will of course want front-page coverage to make sure the people are well-informed of this fact.

I have to wonder, is avoiding lawsuits really worth having President Kerry? I don't think the Administration would risk it. Perhaps they are sandbagging their opponents, but by waiting this long, the Administration has made a huge mistake. In the middle of the political season, the news of this will NEVER get out to the electorate on a widespread basis.

Ever hear of the Air Force?

Since the Cold War and before, we have had the ability to strike very quickly.

Chaney was for immediate response.

So how "stupid" is this?

I am not saying vote for Kerry. I want Bush to win. Just believe that a less moderate Republican would be better.

Hopefully by 08 we will have one.

You mean the same Air Force which had been bombing Saddam's forces for years without result? No thanks.

An EFFECTIVE response takes time to get in place and time to convince the population we must act. I doubt Cheney believed any different.

Only in your dreams would a more conservative president be electable. How can you seriously believe any politician more conservative than Bush could possibly get elected given that the electorate is moderate at best and dumb as a box of rocks at worst? This is not realistic.

RATmedia propaganda still works as the tied polls indicate. Now these may be lies but I don't think they are that far off. We cannot elect more conservative politicians unless we can totally destroy the influence of the RATmedia.
