New Documents Link Saddam To Al Qaeda?Steven Hayes is working on what would be, were our media not so hoplessly partisan, a major story: Recently discovered Iraqi documents now being translated by U.S. intelligence analysts indicate that Saddam Hussein's government made extensive plans to hide Iraq's weapons of mass destruction before the U.S. invasion in March 2003 - and had deep ties to al Qaida before the 9/11 attacks. Thanks to Mark. posted by Ace at 09:26 AM
CommentsToo bad Hayes got 'em from Lucy Al Ramirez Posted by: sentinel on November 18, 2005 09:32 AM
"The Connection" (Hayes' book) is well worth a look if anyone was thinking of checking it out. It's largely a "where there's smoke, there must be fire" kind of exercise, but makes some solid points. I look forward to seeing this under-reported in the media. Posted by: RDub on November 18, 2005 09:33 AM

Alas, Hayes could tell the world that water is wet and no one would listen anymore. Remember, he and his rag are just Neocon tools searching for any evidence at all to support something WE ALL KNOW isn't true. Give it up, the meme won. Saddam was closer to Carrot Top than to Al Qaeda. Cheers, P.S. Sigh. . . Posted by: Dave at Garfield Ridge on November 18, 2005 09:46 AM
Remember that we finally found proof of the Wanasee Conference (final solution planning) in a drawer at the labor department seval years after the end of WWII. There are millions of untranslated documents that may contain information like this. (Bureaucracies run on paper). The democratic "Bush lied" push has always gambled that any evidence would be found after the election. I just hope they are wrong. Posted by: monkeyboy on November 18, 2005 09:48 AM

I also heard there was no way Al Qaeda and Saddam would have worked together, several reports say that Saddam has chronic onion breath, and translated Taliban cafeteria documents repeatedly indicate that Bin Laden "totally hates onions". Posted by: Tom on November 18, 2005 10:31 AM
In order for Saddam to have been in bed with Al Qaeda, he'd have be some sort of self-serving prick. Anyone in their right mind knows he's all about the people. The guy's practically a saint. We right wingers need to quit trying to create fact out of feces in order to justify our own self-serving beliefs. Grenade suppository anyone? Posted by: compos mentis on November 18, 2005 11:00 AM
Speaking of Al Qaeda: Zarqawi: Jordan Bombings 'Oops, Our bad.' Al Qaeda in Iraq's leader Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi said in an Internet audiotape on Friday that the group did not intend to target Muslim wedding parties in deadly bomb attacks in Jordan last week. Posted by: V the K on November 18, 2005 12:13 PM
group did not intend to target Muslim wedding parties in deadly bomb attacks in Jordan last week. Thus bolstering my contention that it was in fact a hit on the PA general. If they wanted to attack immorality, all they needed to do was go to hollywood. Posted by: Purple Avenger on November 18, 2005 12:21 PM
Coming soon to a moonbat website near you ... Hayes LIED! Ace sighed! Posted by: Kirk on November 18, 2005 06:27 PM
addam Hussein's government made extensive plans to hide Iraq's weapons of mass destruction before the U.S. invasion in March 2003 riiight. I don't want to cause you any pain or embarassment ace. Really. But Iraq didn't have any fickung weapons of mass destruction to hide before the US invasion in March 2003, you fickung raterd. Posted by: alistair on November 18, 2005 07:32 PM
Grasp.... Grasp... Grasp Grasp... Nothing there but straws! GRASP GRASP... Damn more straws... Come on Ace I thought you were intelligent. Everyone knows there was no connections to Al Qaeda or WMD. I'm sorry even if there were *documents* found they were probably forged.... kinda like... *hint hint* the Niger document? Posted by: AlanB on November 19, 2005 12:48 AM
I know, I know. It was kinda silly to use only one document to base a whole war upon. If only there was more than one piece of evidence besides a forged receipt to justify the invasion of Iraq. Posted by: joeindc44 on November 19, 2005 12:58 AM
Like the 50+ billion barrels of oil in Iraq? The profits this administration and their Masters, big corporations, are making from this war? The ideological mentality of the Right? Posted by: AlanB on November 19, 2005 11:16 AM
These dumb fucking leftist sheep will never get it through their indoctrinated brainwashed skulls that there were WMD in Iraq after the first Gulf War. Reasoned discourse doesn't work. Long listings of links doesn't work. Showing them past reports of the very people who now contradict themselves by denying what they avowed earlier doesn't work. Trimming it down to catchy slogans like their Commie masters have done doesn't work. It has officially become a religion, and Dubya is the Satan in their New-Age pantheon. There is no logic, only faith and belief, damned be any evidence to the contrary because it is heresy and blasphemy. Posted by: Sue Dohnim on November 19, 2005 12:00 PM
Not exactly, Sue... Obviously, there were WMD left in Iraq after the first GW. They were all gone by 1995 at the very latest. Ritter was right. What the wingnut straw-graspers don't get, is that the absence of WMD in 2002 is the question. And their existence in 1992 doesn't get them off the hook. Posted by: on November 23, 2005 04:01 AM

i>They were all gone by 1995 at the very latest. And we know this how? As Sue said, the Clinton administration in 1998 and 1999 certainly didn't believe this. Posted by: geoff on November 23, 2005 04:08 AM

"All women who are overweight or obese will have to wear burka. 10,000 steps per day, low carb."
Months ago, I reported that the final Zodiac cypher had been cracked and the name of the killer revealed. And the name of the killer turned out to be someone suspected in the unsolved Black Dahlia murder. The general tone of my mention of this was "serious you guys, this is real."
Well, it's not real. It's total bullshit. Sorry about that. I did two things: 1, I bought into something, a conspiracy theory really, because it was new and exciting. And 2, I allowed a self-declared "expert" to snow me over with his "expert" claims about solving ciphers, an alleged expertise I could not challenge because I know practically nothing about codebreaking. I remember being similarly swindled by self-declared "experts" babbling about "chromatic aberrations." (Although I didn't really buy into that, but I found it "interesting" and I wasn't strongly skeptical about it. Hey they said they're "experts," they must know that they're talking about, right?) I screwed up. It won't be the last time, I'm sure.

He was their living lawn jockey, period. They won't say that 'cause they're sensitive and down with his struggle and all. He was there to appease and flatter their sense of being uplifters of the oppressed. In truth, he served as their living lawn jockey -- no more, no less, and unworthy of even a second thought on their part. Tokenism, pure and simple.-- Krebs v Carnot

The Short Unhappy Life of a Russian Soldier: Why recruits die in 20-30 minutes
Interesting video. Some key parts: drones were responsible for 70-80% of all battlefield deaths in mid-2025, and I bet it's higher now. The Russian army is incredibly corrupt. Men get assigned to the most dangerous frontline units, the "Storm" units, unless they pay a superior $2,000 to be assigned to a different unit. Furthermore, there is often no real training for recruits -- commanders pocket the money that would have gone towards fuel and ammo costs incurred during training. Much "training" consists just of taking a single picture of soldiers doing something soldier-y, like fording a river, and publishing that as proof that the training was done. Even when it is done, training is only two weeks long. Recent Comments
