Newsweek magazine ran an article in its January 11, 1999, issue headed "Saddam + Bin Laden?" "Here's what is known so far,"....

Four days later, on January 15, 1999, ABC News ....

NPR reporter Mike Shuster interviewed Vincent Cannistraro.....

By mid-February 1999, journalists did not even feel the need to qualify these claims of an Iraq-al Qaeda relationship. An Associated Press dispatch that ran in the Washington Post ended this way: "The Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has offered asylum to bin Laden, who openly supports Iraq against Western powers."

The collective amnesia of the press is astounding.

These quotes are (I assume) undeniable and, as such, this has GOT to get out to the public.

And it can't just be a review at Fox News....
the left will just blow it off and bury it.

This is a job for Chaney....

"Since all this fine, investigative journalism matched the intelligence we were receiving both internally and externally, we felt that we had no choice but to act preemptively before this threat became imminent."

I'd like to keep these quotes for "ammunition" next time some lib poster starts screeching the "Bush lied about Al-Queda and Iraq" line.
