The video training and also conducting an attack on a Kurdish militia vehicle. The video documentary (click images to view) is titled "Al Awda Ila Al Jibal" or "The Return To The Mountains."

According to the jihadist websites (World News Network) and forums who posted copies of the video the footage was shot somewhere between 2002 and early 2003, when al Qaeda was moving fighters to Iraq under the leadership of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

President Bush Outlines Iraqi Threat
Remarks by the President on Iraq
Cincinnati Museum Center - Cincinnati Union Terminal
Cincinnati, Ohio, October 7, 2002

“We know that Iraq and the al Qaeda terrorist network share a common enemy — the United States of America. We know that Iraq and al Qaeda have had high-level contacts that go back a decade. Some al Qaeda leaders who fled Afghanistan went to Iraq. These include one very senior al Qaeda leader who received medical treatment in Baghdad this year, and who has been associated with planning for chemical and biological attacks. We’ve learned that Iraq has trained al Qaeda members in bomb-making and poisons and deadly gases. And we know that after September the 11th, Saddam Hussein’s regime gleefully celebrated the terrorist attacks on America.”

We’ve had proof that Iran has been helping Al Qeada for over three years, yet not a peep from congress.

Al Qaeda-Hussein Link Is Dismissed
By Walter Pincus and Dana Milbank
Washington Post Staff Writers
Thursday, June 17, 2004; Page A01
“Patrick J. Fitzgerald, now a U.S. attorney in Illinois, who oversaw the African bombing case, told the commission that reference was dropped in a superceding indictment because investigators could not confirm al Qaeda’s relationship with Iraq as they had done with its ties to Iran, Sudan and Hezbollah.”

At the end of Rush’s show today a caller named Jim said he has seen video pre 9/11 that when terrorist graduated from Iraqi terror camps Osama came out of a Limo and greeted them. I’m not sure I am putting this together correctly. Rush had to end the show and cut him off!

I heard this story from a guy who was an UNSCOM inspector and said this was a report he heard from what I think was INC. Passed it along to me as a tip and I wasn’t really able to do anything with it.

That is very important information. This caller must elaborate more on what he was saying.

So why doesn’t Tony Snow during the next major news conference, say by the way folks, you may want to print this stuff up. Silence in the audience, shuffle of feet, lots of coughs, some groans. Frigen flee bitten goons in the press corps., would rather have their genitals cut out/off with no pre shots of red eye then allow such news to hit the stands.

Its sad that the EIB call screener kept this poor guy on hold till the last 2 seconds of the show.

Rush Limbaugh could do a little better of a job currently defending his own web posting of the Salman Pak photos.

Thank you future F22 pilot

Lets set it up just like the 9/11 America forever changed video. I will send you photos and quotes. I have an audio tape from LT Buzz Paterson I would like to use starting off the video.

I am going to work on collecting all the info and send it all to you next week if that is OK.

Is that from the Docex Project or Harmony Database?

Would you mind if I use this translation in the Salman Pak video I am working on?
