It is an excellent article that shows the very strong connection between Saddam regime and Al Qaeda. It was also posted on another thread but important stuff like this are worth re-posting :)

No book my FRiend :), I do not want to bore people with a lot of details. May be in the future a booklet of 20 to 30 pages that include the most important documents with some commentary.

And of course, it will continue to be denied, downplayed, overlooked, forgotten, disregarded and omitted from the public record.

"36 mere coincidences. It just shows that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Bush is the war criminal and needs to be arrested and tried."

I can anticipate their denials already.

I’m a Christian and believe everything happens for a reason (or several), and in my gut, I’ve always wondered if maybe one fo the reasons we went into Iraq was to kill Saddam’s two crazy sons. The world was certainly made brighter by their deaths. No one in the media mentions them anymore. Saddam was power-hungry, but he wasn’t a drooling psycho like Uday. Nuclear weapons in Saddam’s (and Al Qaeda’s) hands- that’s spooky enough. But in Uday’s hands? Oh, excuse me.. his cold, dead hands...

God bless our troops and President Bush.
