Saddam Regime Document: Iraqi Intelligence met with Bin Laden in 1995 (Translation)

Pentagon/FMSO website about Iraq Pre-War Documents ^ | March 21 2006 | jveritas

[jveritas]

In the Pentagon/FMSO document ISGZ-2004-009247 there is a clear report about the relation between Iraq and Bin Laden that dated back to 1995. This document contains a 9 page report from the Iraqi Intelligence Apparatus and it is titled “The Saudi Opposition and Achieving the Relation and Contact With Them”. In the report they talk about there meeting with Osama Bin Laden and that Bin Laden in 1995 and how to establish relations wiht him. In the meeting Bin Laden asked the Iraqis for joint operations with them against the Foreign forces (US military) in the land of Hijaz (Saudia or Saudi Arabia).

I did a partial translation of the report that is related to Osama Bin Laden

In the Name of God the Most Merciful and the Most Compassionate.

The Saudi Opposition and Achieving the Relation and Contact With Them

(Translation of part of Page 4)

2. The Comission of Reform and Advise

Lead by the Saudi Osama Bin Laden who belongs to a wealthy Saudi family with her roots go back to Hadramoot and connected strongly with the ruling family in Saudia, and he is one of the leaders of the Arab Afghan who volunteered for Jihad in Afghanistan, and after the expulsion of the Soviets he moved to stay in Sudan in the year 1992 after the arrival of the Islamists to power in Sudan.

And because of his stands against the Saudi Royal family because of the foreign presence inside it, the Saudi authorities made a decision to withdraw his Saudi citizenship, and we moved toward The Comission from our side and through the following:

Translation of page 5

A. During the visit of the Sudanese Dr. Abrahim Al Sanoosi to the country and his meeting with Mr. Uday Saddam Hussein on 13/12/1994 and with the presence of the respectful Sir the Director of the Apparatus he indicated that the opposition person Osama Bin Laden who is staying in Sudan and who was cautious and fears that he will be accused by his opponents that he became an agent for Iraq, is ready to meet with him in Sudan (The results of the meeting were written to the Honorable Presidency according to our letter 872 on 17/12/1994).

B. The approval of the Honorable Presidency was granted to meet with the opposition person Osama Bin Laden by the Apparatus according to letter 128 on 11/1/1995 (attachment 6) and the meting with him was completed by Mr. M.A ex-4th Directory in Sudan and with the presence of the Sudanese Dr. Abrahim AL Sanoosi on 19/2/1995 and a discussion occurred about his organization, and he requested the broadcasting of Sheikh Sleiman AL Awada (who has influence in Saudia and outside since he is a known and influential religious personality) and dedicate a program for them through the station directed inside the country and make joint operations against the forces of infidels in the land of Hijaz ( the Honorable Presidency has been notified with the details of the meeting according to our letter 370 in 4/3/1995 attachment 7).

Translation of page 6

C. The approval of Mr. President the Leader God protect him was granted to dedicate and program for them through the station directed and we leave to develop the relation and cooperation between the two sides what open in front of it in discussion and agreement through other cooperation doors. The Sudanese side was informed about the approval of the Honorable Presidency above through the representative of the respectful Sir the Director of the Apparatus our ambassador in Khartoom.

D. Due to the latest conditions in Sudan and accusing her harboring of supporting and harboring terrorism it was agreed with the opposition person the Saudi Osama Bin Laden to leave Sudan to another place where he left Khartoom in the month of July 1996 and the information indicate that he is Afghanistan at the present moment. There is stil relation with him through the Sudanese side and we work in the present moment to activate this relation with him through a new channel in light of the current place where he stays.

Unfortunately there was no Arabic translation available back then in 2004.

Somebody needs to send this to Helen Thomas - this was one of her complaints this morning - no connection between Osama and Iraq.

ROTFLOL!!! Bush was right all along!!

[jveritas]

Thank you all my fellow freepers. Please let us send our great thanks and deep gratitude to our brave troops.

They don't call me old eagle eyes for nothing ha ha. I can hardly keep focused clearly on the screen anymore. I had took notice to the saucer some time back and never ran it by you. Perhaps the mystery shall be cleared up.

I thought that was our conclusion the second day or so of that brief and rather covert story hit our site. Will read the link, however. Thanks.

Being originally a native of Lebanon, born and lived there for twenty two years, translation from Arabic to English is a simple thing to do for me :)

PS: All the documents that I have translated so far are handwritten ones and I think there is not a software in the world that can possibly do the translation of a handwritten Arabic document.

Yep. But nobody listens to us! LOL.

Long Live Free Repulic!

jveritas- thank you for all your hard work and dedication to getting the truth out there. You ARE a great American!!

[jveritas]

After all what we are learning through these Iraqi documents and this is still the tip of the iceberg, it is extremely possible that what you posted is true.

[SittinYonder]

ding, ding, ding, we have a winner.

The word is that Iran and Hezbollah were to blame for Khobar. Everyone arrested for Khobar was Saudi except for a couple of them from Lebanon (I think). No Iranians were arrested, though the official ruling is that Iran backed that.

I did read where bin Laden may have provided the explosives, though I don't know if there's anything to it.

Still, the timing makes me wonder if there's something more than coincidence ...

[jveritas]

I hope that they release these documents that further and further show this very clear relation between Saddam and Osama Bin Laden.

The article does not mention the fact that this dopes roomate was a Pakistani student whom as some of us remember took off never to be found. This clown was turned away from the stadium ticket center, so he figured he would wait out the game and when he could detect a large enough group of people existing, run at them an go boom. Fortunatly he goofed off with the ignition mechanism or something while sitting on the park bench and set the bomb off. That's my take on this one. Not that I am being queried to present an explanation.
Surely no one with any intellegience would walk around with a back on his back with explosives wired to go off, that contained nails etc.. Why can't people just call a spade a spade.

[jveritas]

Of course. The Honorable Presidency is Saddam Hussein himself and the Apparatus is the Intelligence service which is the most powerful entity in the Iraqi government.

[StarCMC]

BTTT!!!!

[jveritas]

Agreed 100%.
