Iraq would be the home of Al Quata, funded freely by Saddam. Saddam would be financially supporting anything they wanted. His goal would be a total destruction of the US before he died of old age. If he didn't do this, the terrorists would have taken over Iraq eventually anyway.
I too believe that Al Q would have rid Iraq of Saddam if the U.S. had not. Interesting how those freaking "sheet heads" constantly change alliances. I'm SURE he was considered an infidel by AQ. He was their useful idiot in helping them and supplying them. They would have gladly beheaded him when they were finished with him. Are AQ Sunni or Shite?
Who gives a "shite?" They are all freaking nuts.
