'No Saddam link to Iraq al-Qaeda'

There is no evidence of links between former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda leaders in Iraq prior to the 2003 war, a US Senate report has said.

The revelation comes from a 2005 CIA report released by the Senate's Intelligence Committee on Friday.

US President George W Bush has said that the presence of late al-Qaeda leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in Iraq before the war was evidence of a link.
Others may interpret this differently, but I'm confident you'll explain to us how it vindicates your standpoint (whatever it is today)

Now, now, let's not be hasty. Just because he didn't sleep with them doesn't mean he didn't conspire with them.

Lemme get this straight...

An intelligence estimate 2 years after the war started contradicted intelligence on hand prior to the war starting and this is supposed to mean what exactly?

No, seriously. What's your point Nobbs? Hindsight being 20/20 and all, looks like you guys should have f'ucked off and left "The Colonies" alone, what with us kicking your *** twice, saving it twice and turning your entire country in to colon tongue-ing psycho-phants.

Not mine, but your Senate Intelligence Committee seems to have gone slightly off-message with your C-inC and my terminally stupid Prime Minister

Or, the SIC simply released a year old document from the CIA to which correct thinking people are responding in a "much ado" manner, and democrats are trying to craft in to a damning endictment. I suppose it all depends on our own personal biases as to how we view the situation.

We obviously know I think most democratic politicians couldn't find oil in olive press, but whattayagonnado?

Isn't it funny how at every press conference, Bush STILL keeps saying that the war in Iraq is vital to the "War on Tara" even though Tony Snow claims this information is nothing new?

Yet, I'm sure any minute now, Gbaji will trot in here and claim that the Bush camp never deliberately attempted to graft Al-Qaeda into Iraq to justify a war they wanted to wage before they ever took office.

If you can't see the connection between repeatedly equating the war in Iraq to the "war on tara" and the fact that it's be confirmed now by freaking Congress that there was never any connection between the Iraqi leader and terrorists, then I'd say you're the one who should be guzzling ***, rather than spewing your ignorance around here.

Be sure to swallow.

Gabji is gonna say, if he's conciliatory, that we *needed* to invade Iraq to remove Saddam, so that we could make the US troops leave Saudi Arabia, and therefore appease Al-Qaeada.

No, wait, not "appease" that's for liberals.

Erm, so that we could "get to the source of the problem". Yeah, that sounds much better.

So, by invading and bloodily occupying a country full of Muslims, without the support of the international community or the Security Council, but with Poland's logistical help, we would calm down the fanatics that claim that America is a colonising and aggressive force bent on oppressing Muslims.

Ha! That showed them...

Where as if you can't see that removing from power a dictator who had repeated contacts with a known terrorist group (as well as a desire to attain more weapons of mass destruction and a shocking willingness to use them) is an important part of a global war on Terrorism, then perhaps you should stop talking now and let grown folks handle their business.

By the way, it wasn't confirmed by congress in the story. There was a document written by the CIA that was released by congress today. Arguing with a liberal apologist is a simple task. All I really have to do is say "nuh uh" to anything you write and I pretty much win.

Nope, it is a summary by the Senate's Intelligence Committee, following their analysis of CIA reports.
Quote:

The committee concluded that the CIA had evidence of several instances of contacts between the Iraqi authorities and al-Qaeda throughout the 1990s but that these did not add up to a formal relationship.

It added that the government "did not have a relationship, harbour or turn a blind eye toward Zarqawi and his associates".

It said that Iraq and al-Qaeda were ideologically poles apart.

"Saddam Hussein was distrustful of al-Qaeda and viewed Islamic extremists as a threat to his regime, refusing all requests from al-Qaeda to provide material or operational support," it said.

The Senate report added that the Iraqi regime had repeatedly rejected al-Qaeda requests for meetings.


Full report here

Szabla odbierzemy!!

Marsz, marsz, Dabrowski,
Z ziemi wloskiej do Polski,
Za twoim przewodem
Zlaczym sie z narodem!!

Przejdziem Wisle, przejdziem Warte,
Bedziem Polakami,
Dal nam przyklad Bonaparte,
Jak zwyciezac mamy!!

last paragraph translates as:

Cross the Vistula and Warta
And Poles we shall be;
We've been shown by Bonaparte
Ways to victory

If I condemn him, I'm still allowed to disagree with the given pretext, timing, means, planning and execution of the invasion and occupation, right?

Or is this one of those "If you think we did something wrong, you want Saddam to rape little girls" things?

I guess my reading comp must be "teh suxorz", but I don't remember seeing anyone say that Sadam was a great guy, comperable to a CareBear.

If the only reason we went over to Iraq was because he was such a meany, then why aren't we liberating the people of Cuba, or China, or Vietnam, or Poland?
