Two of the 9/11 Hijackers Met Iraqis in the UAE
Saddam Hussein-Osama Bin Laden: The Connection ^

Posted on 07/26/2004 4:44:15 PM PDT by Conservative Coulter Fan

Two of the hijackers, Marwan Al-Shehhi and Ziad Jarrah, had met Mukhabarat officers in the months before 9-11 in the United Arab Emirates. This provides another stunning indictment of Saddam Hussein and his Regime. How could one not conclude that Iraq had complicity in the 9/11 Attack given this information?

According to U.S. and foreign intelligence officials, in the spring of 2000, Iraqi Intelligegence agents met with September 11th pilot hijackers Zaid Samir Jarrah and Marwin Al-Shehhi in Dubai, UAE in order to advance the hijacking of U.S. aircraft to commit terrorist acts. Not long after the meeting, Al-shehhi entered the United States on May 29 and Jarrah entered on June 27, to begin preparations for attacks. (Source: Complaint (PDF) Lawsuit claiming a 9/11 link between Iraq and al Qaeda. Sept. 3, 2002)

According to David Rose in the Evening Standard: My own doubts emerged more than a year ago, when a very senior CIA man told me that, contrary to the line his own colleagues were assiduously disseminating, there was evidence of an Iraq-al Qaeda link.

He confirmed a story I had been told by members of the anti-Saddam Iraqi National Congress - that two of the hijackers, Marwan Al-Shehhi and Ziad Jarrah, had met Mukhabarat officers in the months before 9/11 in the United Arab Emirates.

This, he said, was part of a pattern of contact between Iraq and al Qaeda which went back years.

They will conclude there is complicity when their standard of proof is met...video tapes and minutes of their conferences, available to all at the local al Qaeda public library.

I forgot to read Saddam his right and offer him legal counsel too. I hope the ACLU doesn't sue me!
