Saddam/al-Qaida Connection


WorldNetDaily features an article listing several people in Saddam's regime who had connections with al-Qaida before and after the 2003 invasion.

While the Bush administration contended there was evidence of a Saddam Hussein/al-Qaida connection before the war, those assertions have come under heavy criticism, especially from Democrats who contend they and others were deceived about the presence of weapons of mass destruction. However, as WND reported last year, pre-war documents posted online by the Pentagon included a letter from a member of Saddam's intelligence apparatus indicating al-Qaida and the Taliban had a relationship with the regime prior to the 9/11 attacks.

A letter by the member of Saddam's Al Mukabarat to a superior, dated Sept. 15, 2001, reported a pre-9/11 conversation between an Iraqi intelligence source and a Taliban Afghani consul.

The information had been released on the orders of National Intelligence Director John Negroponte, and the letter was reviewed by an independent Middle East analyst who concluded it appeared genuine.

Saddam was also paying Palestinian terrorists and their families to blow up innocent Israelis.

There were numerous reasons for the Iraq invasion, and Saddam's terrorist ties and support was just one of them.
