"Citing sources is a form of scholarship"

True, but when the sources are solely opinions without fact, they are still only opinions.

"You pose a question that you designed to provide an answer you seek. You can't prove a negative. If al-Qaeda was not waging war on Iraq-somehow that somehow proves to you that al-Qaeda and Iraq were allied or something."

No, I repeated the question that someone else asked here.

Also, showing an act is not proving a negative. An act is by nature a positive. It is the easiest thing to prove since it involves no theory, just fact.

I have implied that Al Quaeda and Iraq may be allied, but I have not said that they were because I do not really know. There is evidence that that certainly could be and you wave off those facts as if they were nothing, but they are facts which consitute evidence and should not be easily waived off. What I do know is that there is a ton of evidence that Iraq is allied with Hezbollah and Hamas. Hezbollah and Hamas are terrorist organizations, therefore Iraq is harboring terrorists. Which puts the lie to your assertion that Saddam hates terrorists.

Now if you said Hezbollah and al-Qaeda had an alliance --that they do and I agree with you.
