Someday, in my lifetime, I'd like the administration or a Republican to ask the left how they explain the fact that the Iraq newspapers (state-sponsored) and reporters seemed to know that 9/11 was coming.
Maybe Osama and Saddam were just gossiping over the backyard fence when this got published in Iraq's newspaper before 9/11:
Less than two months before 9/11/01, the state-controlled Iraqi newspaper “Al-Nasiriya” carried a column headlined, “American, an Obsession called Osama Bin Ladin.” (July 21, 2001)
In the piece, Baath Party writer Naeem Abd Muhalhal predicted that bin Laden would attack the US “with the seriousness of the Bedouin of the desert about the way he will try to bomb the Pentagon after he destroys the White House.”
The same state-approved column also insisted that bin Laden “will strike America on the arm that is already hurting,” and that the US “will curse the memory of Frank Sinatra every time he hears his songs” – an apparent reference to the Sinatra classic, “New York, New York”.
Jayna Davis has irrefutable evidence of Iraqi involvement in the Oklahoma City bombing.
Didn't they also have a picture on a calendar that showed a plane hitting the Towers?
These are great questions? You might consider sending this to Tony Snow and ask him about it. Tony seems to be the rare individual in the administration that understands these kinds of questions.
Wow, Peach- that's excellent. Not sure if I'm under a rock- but I'd not read or heard about that before. It also is interesting the only two places celebrating (openly) on 9/11 and 9/12 were in the Palestinian territories AND IRAQ.
