Thank you very much for the ping. Saddam terrorist regime had relations with Al Qaeda since 1995 and it was proved with captured documents that we published its translations right here on FR.

Appreciate very much what you are doing.

I thought one more visual evidence, this one before 9/11 and coming from “reputable” and “respectable” media source, couldn’t hurt.

Several of these “in their own words”, combined with Saddam’s own documents (relevance of which media repeatedly denigrates and tries to misinterpret) will make a substantial body of evidence that al-Qaeda’s presence in Iraq was not minimal or accidental and evolved into serious migration from Afghanistan since 2002, after fall of Taliban protection, one that they could either no longer ignore or become “less and less relevant” (just like Jimmy Carter) :~)

A real documentary on DVD would be a good counter to all the liberal “mockumentaries” of Michael Moore’s genre, and Wilson/Plame type of movies that are and will be coming out. Something that is cheap to reproduce and easy to distribute for people who are getting tired of being bombarded with propaganda every day but don’t know the facts.

The Big Lie that the Left and its media auxiliary are now telling is not that there was no link between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda. That proposition has become increasingly difficult to maintain, in light of many thousands of pages of documentary evidence to the contrary. Instead, what they are now doing (in a coordinated fashion, I will further observe) is to spread disinformation in a form apparatchiks of the old KGB would doubtless recognize.

The lie is this: that Republicans generally, and the Administration and Republican candidates for President in particular have (falsely) claimed that Saddam was involved with 9/11.

The purpose of this lie is obviously to discredit Republicans as well as to cast into doubt the ethical underpinnings of the Bush Administration's conduct of the Iraq war. It is evidently designed to put on the defensive people who have never claimed what they are accused of claiming, while diverting public attention from the demonstrable involvement of Saddam with Al Qaeda and the current presence of Al Qaeda in Iraq.

This is what truly good disinformatsia is designed to do: to place its targets on the defensive while obscuring the aims of those who tell the lie. I have now seen this meme emerge several times during the past week in the media and in the left-wing Blogosphere, and cannot help but believe it is no accident.

I'd be interested in your thoughts.
