State Department and CIA officials have quietly told reporters they accept Saddam Hussein's explanation that radical Islamists who trained in Iraq before 9/11 to hijack airplanes using small knives were engaged in counter-terrorism training.

Puzzling. Why would Iraq require radical Islamists to protect their passenger aircraft?

Who are these people? Are they suggesting that Ansar al-Islam is a counter-terrorism organization?

This doesn't make a lick of sense. With all due respect to Newsmax, unsourced stories this confusing are almost less than useless.

"Ladies and gentlemen, will you kindly fasten your seatbelts for our final descent?"

Abdul al-KutThrote then jumped up and reacted as trained against these terroristic air stewardesses who force others to adhere to their morality and valuation of human life.
