Hudayfa Azzam, the son of bin Laden's longtime mentor Abdullah Azzam, told Agence France Presse that the Iraqi regime worked closely with al Qaeda in Iraq before the war. "Saddam Hussein's regime welcomed them with open arms and young al Qaeda members entered Iraq in large numbers, setting up an organization to confront the occupation," he said in an interview published 8/29/2004. Azzam added that al Qaeda fighters "infiltrated into Iraq with the help of Kurdish mujahideen from Afghanistan, across mountains in Iran" and that once they arrived, Saddam "strictly and directly" controlled their activities.

Ms. Burlingame, a lifelong Democrat, is co-founder of "9/11 Families for a Safe & Strong America" [this website]. Her brother, Chic Burlingame, was the pilot of American Airlines flight 77, which was crashed at the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001.
Burlingame told Boortz today (10.07.04) they have tried to speak to reporters after viewing repeated interviews with the "Jersey Girls" (Kristen Breitweiser, the most prominent of the "Jersey Girls" -- the group of 9/11 widows who, angered by what they view as the Bush administration's stone-walling of the 9/11 Commission, recently endorsed Kerry), but reporters would only listen and they never they from them again. Thus, with the same frustration as the SwiftBoat vets; they have started this website to show that Kerry speaks for only a handful of 911 familes and is misleading America.

Correction in comment text above: "they never heard from them again"
PING
BTTT!!
Kerry sends a terrible message to our troops with his "Wrong
War, Wrong Place, Wrong Time" slogan. I can only assume that to those
who died on September 11, 2001 Kerry would like to say, "Wrong Plane,
Wrong Building, Wrong Time".
FYI............PING
You would think that these leftist reporters, Kerry's Campaign, and those 'BoB' widows (don't they remind you of Kerry's BoB, recently MIA due to the Swift Vets?) would no longer be so quick to rule out Saddam's involvement in 9/11 an terror.
With regard to terror, there is a mountain of proof of Saddam's involvement in supporting terror, going back decades.
With regard to 9/11, there are very credible suggestions coming out of the Oil for Food scandal that Saddam very likely FUNDED 9/11, and ongoing insurgents/terrorist attacks in Iraq right now. I site Fox's recent Breaking Point story about the Oil for Food scandal.
This story paints a picture of a broke Usama in late 2000. Then after a fall 2000 meeting with Iraqi intelligence agents, suddenly Usama has money coming out of his butt - which he then sent on to the 9/11 hijackers.
Hmmmm - might there be some connection? Where in the heck are the leftist reporters who spent 8 months writing Abu Graihb stories?
BTTT
I'm kinda new, what is BTTT? Plus, I forwarded the web site to Major Garrett, hopefully he will listen to these families. If anyone deserves to be heard it is them.
bump!
BTTT means "back to the top".Welcome to FreeRepublic.com.
Glad to have you aboard FR (FreeRepublic.com). Since you're new, I thought I would send you something that might make your stay on FR easier and better. It will give you info about FR and also on HTML picture and link posting, etc.
Here is a link. Go to post #116 first (link should take you right to that post), and look under "Pictures". That will give a walk-thru for picture posting. That article gives a lot of very useful and helpful tips on HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), which you need to post on FR. There are other related links and information there as well.

Bush should explain this at the debate,give these examples and tell the public about the murals,this would help greatly!
WHY ! Why doesn't the Bush team get this information out.What is their problem?
BTTT
Burlingham said today (10.07.04 Boortz) the murals alone show a Iraqi tie, as in Saddam's support of the attack on 9-11. Saddam was proud to be represented in the one mural found.
Yes! The only thing I disagreed with Cheney on Tues. was when he said he doesn't question Kerry's patriotism. I do. When you say things like that, it's UNpatriotic. Period.
the one mural showing the planes painted in the "colors of Iraqi airlines" with Saddam's grinning portrait
The right is being too nice to the left. I don't like it!
When you "BTTT" or "Bump", all you are doing is making a reply to an article (thread). However, what that means is that your new reply has now been placed on top of the "Latest Posts" queue. Here's a direct link to the "Latest Posts" queue: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/browse?ao=0
Most people monitor the "Latest Posts" queue for any new replies to threads.
Depending on the number of new articles being posted, an article that currently appears on the news sidebars, e.g. "News/Activism Breaking News," may scroll off the sidebar fairly fast and folks will miss that article if they log in later. A BTTT or Bump (or Ping) keeps an article current or active, even if its title doesn't appear in the news sidebar.
Another way to use BTTT or Bump is as a place maker in a thread (or as a reminder to yourself to "read later"). When you make any reply in a thread, even if it's simply 'BTTT,' it also appears in your "Pings" (or "My Comments") screen. So it's a way to help you keep up when you don't have time to read the articles at a particular moment (which is often the case for me).
See reply numbers 17 and 18 in the thread "What do PING, BTTT and BUMP mean?
