Salman Pak is a far more damning connection of Saddam to terrorist organizations than the 1993 WTC bombing.

Please explain.

BTW, if you follow the trail, Iraqis used Kuwaiti identity as a cover ... just a thought.
"By now it should be clear that the World Trade Center bomber's real name is probably neither Ramzi Yousef nor Abdul BasitAfter all, would someone intending to blow up New York's tallest tower go to such trouble to get a passport under his own name? Yousef was a man of many passports; he had three on his person when he was arrested in Pakistan. Rather, it seems that Ramzi Yousef risked going to the Pakistani consulate with such flimsy documents because he wanted investigators to conclude that he was in fact Abdul Basit, and so would stop trying to determine his real identity. And that is pretty much what happened. ."

"...
What does all this suggest? To me it suggests that Abdul Basit and his family were in Kuwait when Iraq invaded in August 1990; that they probably died then; and that Iraqi intelligence then tampered with their files to create an alternative identity for Ramzi Yousef. Clearly, only Iraq could reasonably have: 1) known of, or caused, the death of Abdul Basit and his family; 2) tampered with Kuwait's Interior Ministry files, above all switching the fingerprint cards; and 3) filched the files on Abdul Basit and his family from the Pakistani embassy in Kuwait. "

So this identity was a cover ... cretaed by Iraqi intel.

I don'tdoubt that Iraq helped to 'cleanse' the identity of Yousef (and others). I'm just saying that the Iraq secret terror org wouldn't have left a trail like the passport to be connected but bin Laden would since he wants Saddam out and a fundamentalist Islamicist in, in Iraq.

Salman Pak is a terrorist training camp 85 kliks SE of Baghdad, with a 707 fuselage parked there to train in taking over a modern jetliner. One of the Buffalo cell actually claimed to have been taken there while taking training in Afghanistan. The Iraqis have been helping to train terrorists of Hamas, Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad (or was that Egyptian Jihad?) and have been funding several orgs.
