Bush has kept his word up to now. Why did the silly DNC doubt his word? LOL. This is like Charlie Brown holding the football for Lucy, but she never trusts him enough to kick.

Saddam Hussein Trained Al Qaeda Fighters - Report

— LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Tony Blair's promised dossier on Iraq is to reveal that Saddam Hussein trained some of Osama bin Laden's key lieutenants, The Sunday Telegraph reported.

The dossier is also expected to disclose that the Iraqi leader has reconstructed three plants to manufacture biological and chemical weapons, it said.

Blair, facing opposition from within his own Labour Party over going to war with Iraq without U.N. backing, has recalled parliament to discuss the issue later this month and promised to publish a dossier detailing evidence against Saddam Hussein.

The Sunday Telegraph said a draft version of the dossier contains detailed information on how two alleged leading al Qaeda members, Abu Zubair and Rafid Fatah, underwent training in Iraq and are still linked to the Baghdad government.

It said Abu Zubair was an Iraqi intelligence officer trained in using terror against the Kurds in Northern Iraq. Rafid Fatah also worked with him against the Kurds, the paper added.

They were then said to have joined ranks with Osama bin Laden, accused by Washington of being the mastermind behind last year's September 11 hijack attacks.

On reports that Saddam Hussein has reconstructed three weapons plants, the paper said evidence was based on "worrying activity" captured by American satellite photographs.

One security official, quoted by the Sunday Telegraph, said the photos "clearly show very worrying activity of rebuilding work at these plants which we already knew were being used for developing chemical and biological weapons. That is what Saddam is doing again."

I heard this too.

This means that Pres. Bush needs no additional congressional approval.

well as kenny rogers said:"You have to know when to hold, and know when to fold". It sounds like our President is a good poker player. He has all this hands played out as he needs them. Dashle will look like the idiot he is. The allies will slowly fall into place. And Sadaam will take a long deserved dirt nap!

Oh my, the next shoe falls...

So just how idiotic do Byrd and Daschle look now?

Not as idiotic as they'll look in a few weeks.

Little Tommy, you know all those Prairie Dog holes you have there in South Dakota? I suggest you go find one to hide in for a few years.

The Dims just can't seem to figure out how they keep getting trumped by that intellectually-challenged, frat-boy-who-really-lost-the-election, can they?

I'm placing the odds at 3:1 that those who oppose this effort on FR will still oppose it.

Any takers?

The President is a genius for having Blair announce this. The labor/socialist members of the House and Senate will have a real tough time calling labour/socialist Tony a liar and tearing apart his revelations.

Britain has a damn good intelligence service and the leftists in this country know they won't get away with pulling it down. It would be like attacking Agent 009 himself.

Underestimate our president at your peril, U.S. appeasers and traitors!

Just heard on FoxNews Channel that Blair says that his dossier will link Saddam Hussein
to Usama Bin Laden terror planning and training. CHECKMATE.


Relevant factoids I've heard in the last couple of days.

1. Osama bin Laden visited Sadaam in Iraq sometime in the mid-1990s. This is the
contention of "Sadaam's former mistress" whose interview with Claire Shipman
took up about half of ABC's Primetime on Thursday night.
I don't know what sort of auxiliary fact-checking has been done regarding this
report.

2. Sadaam has bankrolled the current Palestinian intifada to the tune of
$30 MILLION. I heard this last night, I believe on the CBS Evening News.
I knew Sadaam was handing out those $5K to $25K booby prizes to the Palestinian
suicide/homicide bombers...but $30 MILLION will buy a LOT of trouble.


Additionally, I'm happy Blair will put out this dossier with this Sadaam-Osama link info.
Earlier this spring a writer (New Yorker? New York Times Mag?) put out a long
article that cited lots of tenuous evidence that Sadaam had been busy making friends with
anyone he could...including Islamic fundamentalists like Osama since the end of
The Gulf War.

It will be interesting to see how Blair's/Britain's report will flesh this out.

Saddam challenged Bush to a game of Chicken. That game is still in play, and the end result is still up in the air.

But what amazes me is the liberal media and the Dumbocraps thinking they could win a poker game with Bush. I mean, they had to know, he was holding all the aces. That's simple logic. How dumb can you get?
