Saddam Hussein Had No Connections to Terrorism


Hussein greets Yasser Arafat at a 1979 conference in Havana, Cuba.

Thanks to GregS.

And There's No WMD in Iraq Either, Except Maybe For the WMD They Just Found Update: Instapundit links to an NPR report on the discovery of vials labled "Sarin- V Gas."

Ehhhh...

For a guy with no terrorist links or WMD, Saddam sure does seem to have had a lot of terrorist links and WMD.

Of course, it might only seem that way because I'm so stupid.

Update: Looks like it's a kit to detect Sarin gas, not Sarin gas itself.

Still-- why are such things being stockpiled in Iraq, if there is no Sarin?

Yassir's just "getting by with a little help from his friends."

Poor Ringo.

Oh yeah, Arafat's still dead.

Silly Rabbit, Yassir wasn't a terrorist, he was a statesman. Didn't you see the send off Francy gave his body? That is the same as they would do for a visiting King or dignitary.

If you are looking for evidence of crimes against humanity, look no further than Saddam's tie in that photo

Posted by: Alex on November 11, 2004 03:08 PM

Ace, you're talking/thinking/blogging with the "flyover state" mentality. Those of us deigned by God with superier intelligence (and situated near the coast) can OBVIOUSLY see that the evil HalliburtonBushitlerChenyGestapojingofacistmindmeld machine has "photoshopped" that image. I mean, honestly, you're acting as if you're from fucking OHIO of all places.

;)

Woo hoo! WMD's in Iraq! I'm goin' to Applebee's!

Posted by: Moonbat_One on November 11, 2004 03:22 PM

Good point, fat kid.

As a presumably Applebee-patronizing Ohioan, I see Saddam Hussein shaking Arafat's hand while wearing an obnoxious tie. Undoubtedly I am missing the more nuanced reality of the photo, which a blue stater would instantly pick up on.

Posted by: Alex on November 11, 2004 03:22 PM

*ahem* Yes. Instantly.

Posted by: fat kid on November 11, 2004 04:04 PM

Actually I read a while back on CNS News, and on Ann Coulter's column that they did find some Sarin and mustard gas.

Posted by: Zelda on November 11, 2004 04:09 PM

But you know the MSM considers Arafat a hero. A freedom fighter, maybe, but not a terrorist.

Posted by: ding on November 11, 2004 04:33 PM

Ace--

Drudge says they're going to do an autopsy on Arafat.

I wonder what they'll find:

further proof that hussein cavorts with terrorists:

and more evildoers associating with terrorists:

Posted by: msz on November 11, 2004 04:58 PM

I think the global islamic conspiracy may be far greater than we previously realized. That picture of Hussein with Arafat clearly proves that indeed, Hussein was funding terrorism around the globe.

If saddens me to share this other horrible information that I've found, because it seems that our only true partner in the war on terror may be a double crosser. Just look:

http://images.tvnz.co.nz/news/foreign_politics/blair_arafat_handshake.jpg

I think our troops in the field in Iraq really need to watch their backs when they are around British soldiers. They are double crossing terrorist allies.

It's embarassing how the last of the true-believing WMD true believers continue to insist the snipe hunt will be productive. Even kids quit after a night in the swamps with a pillowcase. (Our Neocon masters said mass stockpiles exist! Have faith!) Keep reminding people that Iraq is as big as California - could be buried anywhere, or say Iraq was one of 45 countries with the capability so it had to be taken out....or insist that a stray pre-Gulf War vial of sarin or a 20 year old shell is "proof positive" of massive stockpiles.

The only proof you need about the WMD threat is by July 2003, the military concluded there was no threat, no danger from Saddam holdouts, terrorists using WMD, because the military judged they didn't exist in quantities to pose a threat.

Now, I know that Saddam gave money for suicide bombers and had other nefarious side activities involving terrorists....so he is a terrorist supporter....but if anyone who has pictures taken with Arafat during a meeting is a terrorist...then every US President from Nixon on is a terrorist, every Israeli from Peres on is a terrorist, every European leader is a terrorist.

Ace,
I see the trollies are finding it over to your site. I got the same, word for word, comment today.

Anyway, it was a Sarin detection TRAINING kit--eg, it was real Sarin. Further, the Christian Science Monitor reports that it appeared that the terrorists were attempting to weaponize it.

Posted by: Rusty on November 11, 2004 06:23 PM

I don't know how many times the MSM has to tell us? Saddam was the only leader in the ME who wasn't shopping for WMD's or hanging out with known terrorists. He didn't want to violate his parole, I'm sure.

Posted by: on November 11, 2004 07:01 PM

Uh, what's up with the coy-ish look that Arafat is giving to Hussein?

Posted by: jmflynny on November 11, 2004 07:08 PM

He died knowing that he had failed.

/you poor Palestinians are such suckers!

//wonder who's gonna suck the life outta you next?

Posted by: Philip on November 11, 2004 07:15 PM


Saddam gave each Palestinian family $25,000 if they would strap explosives to their child and send her out to blow up Jews.

Notice how bombings in Israel dropped off drastically once Saddam was captured.

Many drink from the fountain of knowledge. Alas, "someone" (10:27 PM) only gullibly gargled on Ariel Sharon's pisswater.

Posted by: Cedarford on November 11, 2004 11:38 PM

Interesting logic, Ace. I think Rabin had the exact same connection to terrorism that Saddam appears to in that picture. And he didn't even have to go to Havana. He was so contemptuous that they hald the meeting in the fucking White House Rose Garden!

And why would you need a sarin test kit without sarin? Maybe if, say, you used to have sarin ... I'll wait until this story runs its course before commenting further.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.
