Earlier today I had a little opportunity to do a little currrent events in Arabic. I decided to go to the CNN arabic page. Interestingly, they had this story posted on their website, quite prominently.

When I came home I did an internet search and could not find the story on CNN's main page (English). I could be wrong, but I doubt this will figure promiently in any of the major (liberal papers) or evening news shows. Yet, here are documents that indicate a link between an al-Qaeda opperative, and Iraq. Al-Zarqawi is said to have been in Iraq before the war.

In my mind many links between Iraq and terrorism (specifically al-Qaida) that get shuffled under the rug - so to speak - and no this is not a "bolt from the blue," with a picture of Saddam and Osama swiming on the Tigris, but it is another link.

It is interesting to me how the press howls about some of Kays statements (many of them taken out of context), but then consigns other relavant stories to the back page of the newspaper...or in this case to new organizations overseas.
