"The cell was believed to have had links to terrorist group Ansar al-Islam, which is based in northern Iraq and has been linked by U.S. authorities to al-Qaida."

Sounds familiar

Yet another proof that Al Qaeda has been in Iraq for a long time. In fact Ansar Al Islam the previous name of AL Qaeda was present in Northern Iraq since 2002 with the full knowledge and support of Saddam regime and they came to Iraq under the leadership of dead terrorist Zarqawi.

As you recall the Al Qaeda video that was released this April shows Al Qaeda training in Northern Iraq somewhere between 2002 and early 2003 when Saddam was still in power http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1868301/posts
