Excellent article. The most important information we learned from the captured Iraqi document is that Saddam Hussein was much more involved in terrorism than any intelligence agency has estimated.
Thanks Joseph. There are still a number of attempted attacks that haven't been revealed it seems. What's the holdup?
Check your email by the way.
The "holdup" is that many people do not want to talk about the truth, people in the intelligence community, politics, and of course the media.
Thanks for the ping....lots of people might find this of interest.
No prob. Thanks for the interest. I really think this is something that can't be allowed to be overlooked in the Iraq discussion. This story only represents a sliver of Hussein's intentions though as many on this board already know.
Thanks. Head of state, dead terrorist method-of-operation bump!
Ping; aren't you of Greek background?
bump
Ekathimerini reported that it had been made aware of "a joint operation by Greek and US secret service officers in March 2003 (which) led to the seizure of a large cache of explosives from the basement of the Iraqi Embassy in Athens... Sources said a raid on the embassy unearthed explosive materials, car bombs, detonators, several guns and dozens of rounds of ammunition. Much of the material was 'ready to use' while some was too old to be of any value.. The presence of car bombs, explosives and the other materials in this instance would indicate that Hussein's Iraq had used it's Greek embassy just as it had used it's embassy's in the Philippines, Jordan, Prague, and Yemen in recent years, as a hub for terrorism.
"US secret services could not determine why the weapons cache had been kept at the embassy, although the possibility that it had been destined for use in a terrorist attack during the Athens 2004 Olympic Games has been ruled out."

Thanks for the ping!
this is yet one more reason why saddam had to go. Not that the left cares.
no problem. if you can forward it along to any media contacts,friends i'd greatly appreciate it.
The left really refuses to engage on this topic, even though a guy they quote so often, Larry Johnson, is on the record about this stuff.
-the AGENDA is that "bush lied, people died" - so how does this fit in to further that? it doesn't so they just ignore it.
it's funny because i spent some time in the media business and still talk to a lot of people from big press outlets and they just yawn at this stuff. total disinterest, you'd have to see it to believe it.
Check out the Larry Johnson link in the article...
