July 12, 2003 -- WASHINGTON - A federal judge helping to rebuild Iraq's judicial system says he's come up with an intriguing document linking Saddam Hussein to Osama bin Laden.

Federal appellate Judge Gilbert Merritt, who is currently in Iraq, said an Iraqi lawyer brought him documents that included the name of an Iraqi officer in that country's embassy in Pakistan who was described as "responsible for the coordination of activities with the Osama bin Laden group."

sent this article to two people, one who can't stand Bush's foreign policy and who is from the Byrd school of foreign policy and one more apolitical who doesn't think there's a link.

Great story. This sucker should be lights on headlining on Drudge at least. Gotta get momentum moving the other direction.

[rwfromkansas]

Wow folks. This is VERY interesting. The judge is a Dem and believes this gives strong weight to an OBL-Saddam connection.

This is BIG...now if someone else would bother to report it.

Does everyone get their copy of The Tennessean a few weeks late?

I don't know about the print edition, but the poster of the original thread did note that at the time he posted, the Tennessean website was still on the 6/25 edition.

I've read stories like this over the past couple days, I found the story odd, but still interesting

"responsible for the coordination of activities with the Osama bin Laden group"

The next week or so is going to be devastating for the dems.

1. Link between Saddam and Osama has been found.
2. WMD's found 2 weeks ago (yet to be revealed)
3. UK still stands by their Uranium find! (not the one that was forged).
4. Tony Blair speaking before joint session of Congress - who will hopefully spill all the above information.

WhooooHoooooo! This is going to be a fun week.

I had exactly the opposite reaction.

Perhaps he and the Dems are colluding to "discover" something they know is false or fictitious, so that they can later discredit President Bush and the Republicans (and Freepers) after the error is proven to be an error.

Call me suspicious.

But, knowing demonrats, they will find a way to discredit this guy...

==========================

Or worse.........

This should have been the story of the month --- not the manufactured Niger story.

Bump and mark for reading.

Sending them a copy will bring it to their attention. Again, does anyone have a list of e-mail addresses (that are current and active) for the talking heads! I've spendt the last few days fighting outdated and inaccurate lists.

(If a few FREEPERS sent the article maybe they would notice. Let's get organized and FREEP)
