Well, one Richard Clarke seemed to have thought that there was a connection between Saddam and the terrorists...when he worked for Bubba.
Iraq conspired with Bin Laden to produce WMDs...according to Richard Clarke

...and lets not forget that he was paying off suicide bombers' families to send their kids to blow themselves up for Allah

From CBS' John Roberts on the 9/11 Commission:

"...It is one of President Bush's last surviving justifications for war in Iraq, and today, it took a devastating hit when the 9-11 Commission declared there was no collaborative relationship between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. ... Those repeated associations left the majority of Americans believing Saddam was involved in 9/11, but the commission today put the nail in that connection, or for that matter, any other al-Qaida acts of terror against America, declaring, 'There is no credible evidence that Iraq and al-Qaida cooperated on attacks against the United States.' The report is yet another blow to the president's credibility as he struggles to find the exit door in Iraq and opens him up to new criticism on the wisdom of taking on Saddam with al-Qaida's leadership still at large...."

..from A. Sullivan's Blog

"...if every Freeper would do two hours of research a week browsing through that vast land of Liberal-Media-Past, we would have tons of ammunition..."

Okay .. here goes .. I'm posting my first picture. If it doesn't work .. well .. back to the drawingboard. Question: Why would Saddam have a painting made showing his pleasure at 9/11 .. IF he was not a participant in it ..?? Maybe Saddam didn't plan it, organize it, or train the terrorists .. but he could easily have funded it, and provided the place for training as evidenced by the airline shell at Salmon Pak.

Woohoo! Great find!

ALL: In case anyone you know who is 'skeptical' about the Bush Admin approach to WOT, or if anyone tries to tell you the Clinton Admin was equally as tough, here is the difference in a nutshell, straight from their mouth:

Clinton Admin approach: "We will identify, locate and prosecute all those responsible, right up the line, from those who constructed and delivered the bombs to those who paid for them and ordered it done."

Bush Admin approach: "We will identify, locate and KILL all those responsible, right up the line, from those who constructed and delivered the bombs to those who paid for them and ordered it done."
