Overlooked and new testimony supports idea of al Qaeda presence in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq…

Over the past many months a number of interviews, documents, admissions and other revelations have come to light that continue to undermine the notion that al Qaeda and al Qaeda linked groups were not able to operate inside Iraq during……

Stix, I think that’s a little bit harsh to say at the very least. Facts do matter to liberals, it’s just only facts which help them promote their cause and political views. A behavior they hold everyone responsible for except themselves.

Philly Steve said; “One member of al Qaeda traveled in Iraq?”

No one member travels alone. What makes you think the people who Zarqawi hides behind aren’t counted as members, they trained in Al Qaeda training camps ran by Zarqawi. Al Qaeda would never let him roam alone as he was an important figure. Of course, he’s not the only important figure in the group, but more or less he was an important one.

Funny how this report makes no mention of anything found in the IDA or the contrarian evidence of the Baath and al Qaeda detainees I’ve written about. This hack job sham was dutifully carried by the DNC water carrying members of the MSM. What a shame.

On a much related note, this is an excellent read.

Chris nailed it.

If we had not taken out Saddam all we would be hearing about today is the threat of WMD and libs demanding that Bush be impeached for not acting to protect America.

As Stix points out, all the lefties care about is acquiring power and the best way in their minds to do that is trash whatever Bush does.

Meanwhile, Bush was practicing the new tone and hoping that the contrast of his behavior with that of the rabid, defeat America Dems would get through the left wing media monopoly.

Sadly, the new tone turned out to be a huge mistake. It allowed the loons to continue spewing their BDS unanswered.

Tim,

I remember the fallout from that union…. Our AT/FP and S2 guys had posters up all over with the quotes from Bin Laden and we were incensed about the ties with Iraq. Operation Desert Fox came months later and we thought we were going to go in and end the nightmare then.

I keep thinking that if we had not liberated Iraq, the left would be screaming things like the following:

Bush allowed Bin Laden to escape to Iraq because (insert ‘bumper-sticker reason’) and AQ has set up a safe haven and training areas there protected by Saddam. Now that Saddam has NBC weapons and the ability to launch them, there is nothing we can do.

Bush ignored clear and undeniable intelligence from the previous administration and multiple intell agencies of various nations (including Russia) indicating Iraq violated the cease fire and created the above NBC weapons and delivery systems.

Bush failed to contain Saddam.

Bush failed to see the fact Saddam would work with AQ. Therefore Bush shows he does not understand Arab nationalism.

The list goes on and on….

In Lt. Col. (Ret.) Robert patterson’s book “War Crimes”, Three Rivers Press, 2007, a chronology of terrorist events is listed in the Appendix, including a gem on page 239. It is a story reported in US News & World Report that on Feb3rd, 1998 Egyptian Islamic Jihad head Ayman Zawahiri stopped in Baghdad on his way to unite forces with Bin Laden’s Al Qaeda. While there Zawahiri was given $300,000 by Saddam for the new venture. On Feb 23, 1998 Zawahiri & Bin Laden announced the merger of both groups in Afghanistan, while openly declaring war on the U.S, vowing “to kill the Americans and their allies- civilians and military-…in any country in which it is possible to do it.”

Stop using facts against the liberals. It will not work, they just ignore it and make something up. Facts do not matter with liberals, only power does.
