You'd have to ask the people who noticed. I didn't, and wouldn't, because I don't read a bit of Arabic.

[MizSterious]

There are a lot of assumptions like that, including the one I hear a lot (even on FR) that Osama and Saddam would "never" work together because they are so different culturally. If we learn nothing else from this, perhaps at last we'll learn that these people will ALL work together against a common enemy, i.e., us.

Methinks it's time to write a sarcastic letter to the editors of our local rag.

The lefties have been ranting over and over again about no WMD, no connection of AQ to Saddam and Iraq - all the dem talking points.

With less than 1% of the docs released, who knows, the WMD may just show up with map coordinates on paper.

And wouldn't it be great to find a connection to the ME guys involve in OKC or even a paper ridiculing Clinton for refusing to take Ben Laden when he was offered on a silver platter?

And wouldn't it be great to find a connection to the ME guys involve in OKC

I told my husband last night it would be interesting to find something about that in the docs.
