The report traced the history of intelligence on al Qaeda's interest and actions in seeking chemical, biological and nuclear weapons from the late 1990s.

And this intelligence was shared with us; it had to have been.
And Clinton did........what?

A January 2000 intelligence report stated that bin Laden in the autumn of 1999 "had recruited ... chemicals specialists."

And during that period of time, the President of the United States was Bill Clinton.
And Clinton, upon hearing this data, did........what?

This article is loaded with very interesting Bush was right tidbits.

The report itself stated that identified al Qaeda member Abu Khabbab was developing biological agents. This was confirmed by the discovery of a laboratory in Kandahar. Scientists were also recruited for the biological weapons work.

That my friends is proof that the terrorist who attacked us on 911, were also actively developing biological WMD agents.

The report also stated that al Qaeda had shown interest in gaining chemical and biological expertise from Iraq. But they do not know whether any such training was provided.

Thats proof that al Qaeda was seeking biologcial WMD expertise from Iraq. Now why would they do that if Saddam had no WMD ? We are perhaps just a small step away from connecting the obvious dots between 'We have this anthrax. You cannot stop us.' and the al Qaeda terrorists who attacked us on 911 and the Iraqis who had the expertise and even possessed the actual anthrax components.

I expect to see this on the front pages of the big newsprint media first thing in the morning...... /NOT

[BluH2o]

Watched ABC's WNT with Peeetah Jennings last evening ... their take on the British report released yesterday shows no connection was established between Iraq/al Qaeda. Are we on the same planet?

They won't allow this news out.....they are claiming this is a damning report for Blair...yada yada yada.

Here is a transcript from a CNN report back in 2002 in which Abu Khabbab is discussed.

Soory about the double post..

[HisKingdomWillAbolishSinDeath]

The worst thing about the WMD coverage is the media trivializes the whole issue. Instead of incessantly ranting about whether Iraq had WMD or not, the important questions are:

1. Do you have the technical know how to produce it?

2. How quickly could you acquire the materials needed to create the desired amount of the weapon?

3. Once you have the material, what type of facilities and equipment would you need?

4. How long would it take to build/produce the weapons once you had the prerequisites?

Of course when groupthink and conformity is the order of the day in public education, and at major media outlets, don't hold your breath for thinking "outside the box".
