Salman Pak is not the only Al Qaeda Link with Iraq. They are numerous, they go back some time.

If you noticed in my earlier post, former CIA director Woolsey pointed out that an Iraqi journalist wrote 3 months BEFORE 9/11 that we would be hit.

A July 21, 2001 article in an Egyptian newspaper article headlined, "America, an Obsession with Osama bin Laden" indicated that Baghdad knew what was coming three months later, the former U.S. intelligence chief told the court. The report, written by an Iraqi, predicted bin Laden would target both New York City and the Pentagon.

Woolsey noted a line in the story that predicted bin Laden would "strike America on the arm that is already hurting," explaining that the phrase was likely a reference to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

Mix that with Salman Pak. It's a heady brew.

I read your Post, but I'd still like to read the Article in question. Gotta Babelfish translation of the Egyptian, by any chance?

Not out of "doubt", but certainly out of "justifiable curiosity".
