As paranoid as Saddam was at least he could rely on CNN to cover his backside. Castro's favorite too IIRC.

CNN and the UN, out of the USA!

It appears that 'eyespysomething ' already has a ping list on the Saddam documents, "prewardocs" key word, I found it after my post. I just sent FReepmail to ESS to get on the list.

Thank you so much jveritas for all your hard work. I know it is appreciated by all of us. :-)

Not to dig these grave by the Iraqi side… and it is possible to make a dialogue with the CNN channel to give them a priority on this subject to have an influence over the international arena and it will be accepted more than the Iraqi media.

Same here.

If you CNN in the US is bad try to hear CNN international. When I travel abroad on business I am stuck with this CNN International in my hotel rooms. It is the ultimate Hate USA network.

Remember the "Baby Milk Factory" fiasco? CNN gave a lot of coverage to that, did their best to give the US a black eye over it. And then there was Peter Arnett...

The MSM does a good job to bury inconvenient news, inconvenient for them, that is.

You have to wonder why people are leaving CNN to join Al Jazeera?

[jveritas]

Not yet, however I did one page translation of an Iraqi intelligence document saying that the Kurds told a US delegation who visited in 2002 the part of Northern Iraq under Kurdish control that Saddam is training AL Qaeda terrorists at Salman Pak.

[jveritas]

Not a big difference in the agenda between CNN and Al Jazeera, it is the same: Hate America.

[MizSterious]

Indeed. Today's Daily Oklahoman, in fact, has a stack of letters to the editor claiming we went to war with Iraq because of lies, and/or for the wrong reasons. I'm going to quote some of these translations in a letter of my own. It's time the public started seeing the truth.

[jveritas]

Thank you very much, I am just a humble freeper :) Please spread the truth.

[baseballmom]

bumping. Thank you, jveritas for all your hard work in getting these docs translated and made public.

[FairOpinion]

Laurie Mylroie talks about it and seems there are some other documents. (?)

"When American marines took over Salman Pak in early April 2003, they indeed
found the terrorist training camp, the airplane, and the foreign terrorists.
An American military spokesman affirmed, "The nature of the work being done
by some of those people we captured. ..gives us the impression that there is
terrorist training that was conducted at Salman Pak." The marines "inferred"
that the airplane "was used to practice hijacking," the Associated Press
reported. Saddam's apologists claim the camp was for counterterrorism
training, but that seems highly improbable.

Iraqi documents, dating from January to May 1993, suggest that Baghdad's
training of terrorists goes back over a decade - at least to the period
following Iraq's August 1990 invasion of Kuwait. That training was
interrupted by the 1991 war, but appears to have resumed not long
afterwards.

These documents, leaked by a Pentagon official to Scott Wheeler of Cybercast
News Service, are posted on its Web site. Bruce Tefft, a retired CIA
counter-terrorism official who worked on Iraq; MEMRI's Nimrod Raphaeli;
Middle East scholar Walid Phares; and this author have all expressed their
confidence in the documents' authenticity. They are on official Iraqi
letterhead and are essentially a 40-page correspondence between Iraqi
intelligence and Saddam's office."

Backhoe, are you by chance keeping track of these translations threads?

Thanks.

[jveritas]

You are doing a great job by spreading the truth. This Free Republic forum is where we get the truth and spread it for everyone to hear and see.

[jveritas]

Exactly right.

I believe their motto is "The news you can count on."

Its more like "The news you can count on being Anti American"
