OT--Read this. Still think there's no Iraq/al Qaeda connection?

You conveniently dismissed the NPR, ABC News, and Newsweek reports from 1998 and 1999 that stated Saddam was working with bin Laden and actually discussed offering him sanctuary. I didn't "conveniently dismiss them" because I never saw them. Sounds like more BS to me. Isn't that when OBL was supposedly in Sudan being offered to Clinton on a platter? You're getting your propaganda mixed up. Saddam Hussein's gov't was strictly secular and persecuted Moslem fundamentalists like Al Queda. To your simple-minded bigoted point of view they look the same. The bottom line- there is no provable Iraq/Al Queda connection, and even if there were, it would still be shaky grounds to wage a war in which 10,000 civilians were killed. Add to that the meaningless US casualties, the decreased effectiveness of the U.S. military, the increased risk of terrorism, and you get.... ??? DSK |

DSK Speaking of casualties, you don't suppose the idiot in the White House watched 60 Minutes last night, when it ran through the names and faces of the 800+ Americans Bush has gotten killed in his misbegotten war in Iraq and Afghanistan? So many young faces, so much potential snuffed out for neo Conservatism. Bush and his gang of lying thugs deserve to be tarred and feathered when his term ends this January. |

By your reasoning, every President that served during any conflict involving
the U.S, should be done so. So, Washington, Lincoln, Wilson, FDR, JFK, Johnson, Nixon, Clinton, and G. B. Sr. should be tarred and feathered, to name a few. Considering the hot tarring often resulted in a painful death, you're not as anti-death as you want to appear. Personally, I think you're going too deep into the propaganda traps. We should never be willing to sacrifice our freedoms to any political party. Budd "Harry Krause" wrote in message ...

Any news agency can and generally will report as fact if that is all they
have to go by "NOYB" wrote in message ... "jps" wrote in message ... In article , says... NOYB wrote: THE PRESIDENT CONVINCED the country with a mixture of documents that turned out to be forged and blatantly false A long meandering tale, hinging on *one* individual, full of "might be" and "maybe", is sufficient reason to wage a war, occupy a country, kill 10,000 Iraqi civilians and 1,000 U.S. soldiers? Don't think so. DSK Grasping at straws. Balsa wood drones, Winnebago weapons labs, a single sarin gas shell, a single scum bag who maybe played both sides. Any one of the above justifies our imperial ambitions for the fans of George. jps How do you account for the 1999 NPR, ABC News, Washington Post, and Newsweek stories that concluded: "The Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has offered asylum to bin Laden, who openly supports Iraq against Western powers"? |

The excerpts from NPR, ABC news, Newsweek and the Washington Post were *in* the Weekly Standard article. |

So, nobby, are you beginning to accept the fact that the odds are even that your dumb boy bush is going to lose the election again this fall? |
