No evidence existed to show an alliance between Iraq and al Qaeda before the war

The fall of Baghdad has produced new evidence to buttress the Bush administration's prewar contention that Saddam Hussein's regime and Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda had a long history of contacts. The most conclusive evidence comes in a highly detailed list of intelligence reports revealed last month in the Weekly Standard. Senior Iraqis were said to have traveled to Sudan in the mid-1990s to teach bin Laden's operatives how to make sophisticated truck bombs. Terrorists subsequently used such bombs to hit targets in Saudi Arabia and at two U.S. embassies in Africa. ---Iraq-al Qaeda link comes in focus by Rowan Scarborough THE WASHINGTON TIMES December 01, 2003

Yeah, they were only treating Al-Qaeda battlefield casualties in their hospitals. They were only so friendly that Richard clarke told Clinton that Osama would run to Baghdad if he had to leave Sudan.

Ron Paul is a liar. No person with intel access believes that there was no working relationship.
