We know Saddam worked with the PLO and other terrorists, he funded them. He at LEAST knew that 9/11 was coming.

Less than two months before 9/11/01, the state-controlled Iraqi newspaper “Al-Nasiriya” carried a column headlined, “American, an Obsession called Osama Bin Ladin.” (July 21, 2001)

In the piece, Baath Party writer Naeem Abd Muhalhal predicted that bin Laden would attack the US “with the seriousness of the Bedouin of the desert about the way he will try to bomb the Pentagon after he destroys the White House.”

The same state-approved column also insisted that bin Laden “will strike America on the arm that is already hurting,” and that the US “will curse the memory of Frank Sinatra every time he hears his songs” – an apparent reference to the Sinatra classic, “New York, New York”.

I simply do not understand the Bush - haters obssession with trying to force us to share their political belief that Iraq/Saddam had nothing to do with Al-Qaeda/9-11 and the murder of all those folks in NYC.

It is absolutely logical that Iraqi oil money, easily moved around the world by Iraqi diplomats, and fully protected by UNers who were getting a share, paid for most worldwide Muslim kerrorist activities. It is just so obvious.

Why? Even if we do not know that the particular apple fell to the ground, due to the known law of gravity it must do so, if not in the past or present, then surely in the future. The same here: given everything known about Saddam, could he have failed to work agains US?
