- OSAMA BIN LADEN and Saddam Hussein had an operational relationship from the early 1990s to 2003 that involved training in explosives and weapons of mass destruction, logistical support for terrorist attacks, al Qaeda training camps and safe haven in Iraq, and Iraqi financial support for al Qaeda--perhaps even for Mohamed Atta--according to a top secret U.S. government memorandum obtained by THE WEEKLY STANDARD.
The memo, dated October 27, 2003, was sent from Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Douglas J. Feith to Senators Pat Roberts and Jay Rockefeller, the chairman and vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. It was written in response to a request from the committee as part of its investigation into prewar intelligence claims made by the administration. . . .
You would think more television networks and media publications would pay attention to this. But so far I've only heard it on FoxNews (who mirrored the article after the Weekly Standard's servers went down due to an overwhelming number of hits via a link from the Drudge Report) -- but actually I haven't noticed a great deal of chatter.
Almost as if those who said the U.S. had no case for the war are deliberately ignoring this story? . . . Naaaaaaaaaaaah.
