Forty-eight thousand boxes containing thousands upon thousands of documents from the Saddam Hussein regime are slowly revealing a relationship between Iraq and Al-Qaeda. This link has been reported by bloggers and a few magazines but … where is the Mainstream Media when we need it? Here’s another article:
A handwritten dossier dated Aug. 17, 2002, confirms an operational cell of al-Qaeda inside Iraq and identifies its key member as Ahmed Fadil Nizal Al Khalaylah—also known as Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the current leader of al Qaeda in Iraq. Saddam’s regime, from the document, seems little concerned about the terrorist’s presence—even though tolerating known terrorists violated UN resolutions—and less surprised, perhaps with reason.
It's real simple....if it's anything that would be helpful to our administration and the war on terror, the main-stream media will not report it. "Agenda? Agenda? We don't have no stinking Agenda"
So long as there is a Republican president the documents will not be "ready enough" to report on. When there is a Democrat in the presidential chair, the documents will be declared fully and officially translated. The MSM will take pains to point out that they were irrelevant to the decision to go to war because...they weren't translated then.
ABC has been good abuot translating/publishing the docs.
