Document: Afghani Taliban Consul Spoke of a Relationship Between Iraq and Bin Laden See Translation
Pentagon: Pre-War Iraq documents ^ | March/16/06 | jveritas

Posted on 03/16/2006 7:44:29 AM PST by jveritas

The documents of pre-war Iraq were published this morning on the Pentagon website, I did a quick search and I found a very interesting document written in Arabic and not yet translated to English. I did the translation and I found the following:

This document is a letter written by a member of Saddam Intelligence apparatus (Al Mukabarat) on 9/15/2001 (shortly after 9/11/2001) where he addressed it to someone higher up and he wrote about a conversation between an Iraqi intelligence source and a Taliban Afghani Consul. In the conversation the Afghani Consul spoke of a relationship between Iraq and Osama Bin Laden prior to 9/11/2001, and that the United States was aware of such a relationship and that there is a potential of US strikes against Iraq and Afghanistan if the destructive operations in the US (most probably he is referring to 9/11 attacks) were proven to be connected to Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban.

Below is a translation from Arabic to English of CMPC-2003-001488 document that was posted on Pentagon Website regarding the pre-war Iraq documents. (http://fmso.leavenworth.army.mil/products-docex.htm#iraq).

Text of the document in English translated from Arabic.

In the Name of God the Merciful

Presidency of the Republic

Intelligence Apparatus

To the respectful Mr. M.A.M

Subject: Information

Our source in Afghanistan No 11002 (for information about him see attachment 1) provided us with information that that Afghani Consul Ahmad Dahestani (for information about him see attachment 2) told him the following:

1. That Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban in Afghanistan are in contact with Iraq and it that previously a group from Taliban and Osama Bin Laden group visited Iraq.

2. That America has proof that the government of Iraq and Osama Bin Laden group have shown cooperation to hit target within America.

3. That in case it is proven the involvement of Osama Bin Laden group and the Taliban in these destructive operations it is possible that American will conduct strikes in Iraq and Afghanistan.

4. That the Afghani Consul heard about the subject of Iraq relation with Osama Bin Laden group during his stay in Iran.

5. In light of this we suggest to write to the Commission of the above information.

Please view… Yours… With regards

If there are more Freepers out there who can translate Arabic it would be great to see some of these other documents translated.

Have you offered FMSO a copy of your translation so they can post it for a larger audience?

Has the NY Times yet to admit that Stalin killed people?

The proper phrasing would be : "Has the NY Times yet to admit that Stalin killed millions of his own people?"

Good, because the constant effort to denigrate the original mission as unnecessary because vats of WMD were not used, is evidence that many do not want a successful outcome, and want an asterisk by these soldiers names as having fought and died in the "wrong" war, sent there by a CIC who made a "mistake".

As with all beliefs of this President's enemies on Iraq, precisely the opposite is truth.

Doesn't the Dan Rather school of journalism state that the papers must be proved forgeries?
Otherwise they are authentic!

I don't believe the President would invade again at the same time in the same way if he had known then what we know now.

You're wrong about that. He has been repeatedly asked that question and has repeatedly said he would make the same decision.

The MSM could be slapped in the face with these documents and they won't admit their existence, will call them fakes, will say the sources can't be confirmed or just go back to the same old single montage of no stockpiles while ignoring any evidence they were moved.

Yes, he has said that. And its the right thing to say.

I suspect that these connections will never be confirmed by our government, as someone (the SOURCE) in Iran, or Russia, or another non-friendly intelligence agency may get killed, or in the case of the French, embarrassed.

I believe that the "common knowledge" that we lost all HUMINT because of the Church Committee gutting the CIA is disinformation.

They'll never admit that. I was wondering if they think he ever had ANYONE killed.

LOL, the Presidents enemies have changed their tune since the Iraq invasion began.

Here is the Dem CHAIRMAN of the Sen Intel committee quoted in Time mag 9/11 special edition, Sept 24 2001, page 43.

Bob Graham says there is "some evidence" that Saddam was involved, evidence that is "credible enough that you can't take Iraq off the list". What was this credible evidence he spoke of?

Who knows if we will ever know for sure what Saddam knew, but our enemies in the US, are/have been campaigning 24/7 for 3 years, in defense of Saddam and Sons.

Too bad the RINO's won't allow the "white flag" ad to be run again on TV

Pass this "white flag" ad from Dec 2005 around on the internet, it's from gop.com

http://www.gop.com/Media/120905.wmv

At least gop.com has not been taken over by the RINO's!







Time for the real conservatives on FR,
be it Republicans, Independents or Democrats
(like Zell Miller and John O'Neill) to band together
and oust the looney left and RINO's




The "Politically Correct RINO's" on FR are the same group
who "swore"
klintoon, hitlery, hanoi kerry, sanbdi ber(bur)glar, al bore, jane beno,
would be prosecuted for
pardongate, chinagate, the bribes in upstate NY in the 2000 NY Senate race, waco, etc, etc,
"when" the "time was right".

CNSNews in Oct of 2004 released 42 documents that contained damning information on Saddam's Iraq. I am waiting to see if any of those show up in the mix of those which are released in the future.

"I read the release yesterday and there was a QUALIFIER that extends to all documents just released. It said the documents have NOT been authenticated."

Let's hope these docs are forgeries so CBS will take the ball and run with it!

I still believe there is so much going on that we have NO idea about.

Some because the MSM doesn't know and shouldn't, and some because they don't care about the truth.
