		<description>.... just a quick clarification:  Sadam not having anything to do with 9-11, and Sadam having ties to al quaeda are two totally separate things;  though muddled minds will tend to muddle them!   [plus this is way too old for anyone to notice...]</description>

		<description>It&#039;s not worth explaining every charge these witch hunter commenters make and spin, but just one, the most official as I recall, at Bush&#039;s late 2002 prime time news conference he explicitly and clearly stated that &quot;we have no proof that Iraq (Sadam) had anything to do with the attacks of 9-11.&quot;  &#039;course these facts certainly get in the way of your all&#039;s fun....</description>

In fact, Bush justified the war against Iraq by directly linking it to 9/11: The use of armed forces against Iraq is consistent with the United States and other countries continuing to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations or person who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001.  http://thinkprogress.org/2006/03/20/9-11-and-saddam/   Terri321 [...]</description>

		<description>To this crazy bastard &quot;Ãœberdorf Whatever Nazi like arse-hole&quot;
Please, And I beg you PLEASE come alone at any time on my street here in NY City and I will personally take real GOOOD care of your sorry ass. 
For the comment that you posted above, you must be one hell of a sick ugly mind dear old timer, I have been reading all these posts in here and I do confirm that these two individuals that you refer to as (young fine white minds) with most certainty might be young, but I do not in any way think that they are That kind of trolls. Not in any way that hateful enough to join the Christ awful ranks of Neo-Nazi such as you. Az Joe might be a guy that has his own mind set on not liking whatever it is that he dislikes, I-right I might not very found of Liberals but I am pretty sure that none of these guys would even be in here if it was not for the fact that they DO sincerely care for America as a whole. So, as most in here I must say that not did I only become quite baffled and a bit shocked by your &quot;invitation&quot; old man, but I got a hell of an ERUPTION of ANGER and since I am a very REAL BCW Territorial-SpFs and a VET (GF 90- 91) I am ready for your kind at any time and place just name it dear Sir. I do not insist in anyone supporting any war in any way but I condemn those that insult any One wearing a uniform in any democratic country. I am an immigrant that moved here back in 96 to this fine country and did my service for Britain as you might have noticed if you are familiar with Army codes as typed above (which I by the way doubt) And my Grandfather did fight those of your kind in the great war. So I am a bit familiar with your tactics in drafting young men into your cause. But even more do I recognize your true back drafting and more often hidden agenda, To gain power over the mass just because of power in the first place. Another of their aim is to do as much ill towards recognized and humane efforts in a geological commonwealth. So to you all in here or elsewhere do not listen to sick and troubled minds that do not understand the difference between &quot;Neo-conservatives&quot; and &quot;Neo-Nazis&quot;. They are nothing of the same kind even though many seem to lean a bit too much to the far right. I am my self a Democratic liberal and damn proud of it. I salute all who has the aim as to fight exact this kind of filth and I encourage all in here to do so. And as for this President and his huge lack of conscience, I believe that neither HE nor his administration is worth mentioning after all their foul plays and misdeeds. Thus with that, dear commentators I depart with the recognition of have been giving my final words.</description>

		<description>&quot;Whatâ€™s Become of Americans?&quot;

It isn&#039;t just Americans, alas: it is human beings. The penchant for violence is an unfortunate legacy of our animal natures. Or a distortion thereof - I&#039;m not sure even sharks /enjoy/ the act of killing. But we do.

Humans /the world over/ enjoy killing, and many who you would think nothing about having as neighbors avidly pursue the &quot;sport&quot; of putting bullets into members of other species and watching them scream, bleed and die.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;What&#039;s Become of Americans?&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;The neocons have yet to tell us the real reason for their assault on Iraq, which has so far produced 20,000 dead, maimed, and wounded U.S. soldiers, between 30,000 and 180,000 (and rising) Iraqi civilians, and demoralized U.S. Marines to the point that they commit atrocities on women and children.&lt;/strong&gt; 

Would real Americans accept these blows for the sake of an undeclared agenda? Perhaps it is true that Americans don&#039;t live here any longer.

		<description>RR,

You&#039;re such a redneck moron - that&#039;s no proof of an Al Queda link, which is what you morons keep claiming.  And you&#039;re probably too retarded to realize this, but EVERY arab nation in the ARAB WORLD has some ties to the palestinians - especially the Saudis - our &#039;friends&#039;.  The Palestinians are seen by other arabas an oppressed and occupied people, and that&#039;s why they get support from the arab world.  This proves nothing but that Saddam was an arab nation.

You&#039;re such a FOOL and MORON.  Were you always this retarded, or did you have to work at it.

And where is the ORIGINAL of this document - it sounds as fake as the Swiftboat &#039;evidence&#039;.  Boy you&#039;re a gullible idiot.</description>

<p>You&#8217;re such a FOOL and MORON.  Were you always this retarded, or did you have to work at it.</p>
<p>And where is the ORIGINAL of this document &#8211; it sounds as fake as the Swiftboat &#8216;evidence&#8217;.  Boy you&#8217;re a gullible idiot.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=482597', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>Saddam&#039;s WMD and terrorist connections all proven in one document!!!

IZSP-2003-00003336

The Arabic original shows the Falcon emblem of the Iraq Intelligence Service. A translation is provided if you scroll down. I highlight the key wording but there is more:

March 11, 2003

The al-Quds liberation army division supplied us with information....as follows.

1. The Iraqi government will distribute the same leaflets that the American forces are distributing but it will contain anthrax.

2. Iraq imports uniforms resembling American forces uniforms for the purpose of killing Iraqi citizens....

3. Dig trenches around Baghdad...oil...burning...cause mayhem

Now this letter is from al-Quds, a Jihad organization that supports the Palestinians. Saddam was the patriarch and Iraq officers worked closely with them.

IZSP-2003-00000859  also talks about the al-Quds Basra division. This is a a letter from a paramilitary organization INSIDE Iraq and not from Palestinian territories. The al-Quds in Iraq are Palestinians who live in Iraq and also are involved in Palestinian activities.  They fought for Saddam because Saddam supported them in Palestine. The officers were Iraqi.

The al-Quds are covering their own butts by telling the IIS what they have been ordered to do or even trying to get them to stop Saddam since the war is immanent. If Saddam wanted to kill Iraqis with anthrax to make it look like the U.S. did it, it would be wise for him to use Palestinians instead of Iraqis. Therefor, it makes sense that he ordered the al-Quds to do it.

Iraqis might not carry out the order.

They also would talk to their communities. the Palestinians would naturally be in more segregated ethic areas of Iraq, thus better security. Perhaps they would go back to the Palestinian territories when finished.

If Iraqis were caught by U.S. forces with the anthrax, then Saddam is caught. If the Palestinians were caught, he could deny it. See the post below on how he never admitted to using chemicals on the Iranians.

So these  guys get this order and report it to the IIS to make clear it is not their idea.

The wording &quot;the Iraqi Government&quot; seems to indicate that they are clarifying that when they do this it will not be a Palestinian attack on the Iraqis but under the orders of Saddam. They also avoid saying &quot;we will do it&quot; in case things don&#039;t go Saddam&#039;s way. They don&#039;t want that in a record.

They don&#039;t want anybody at the IIS coming after them. They also realize Saddam might be setting them up to take the fall if it all goes bad. The IIS may not know about it.

It wouldn&#039;t take &quot;stockpiles&quot; of anthrax to do it, a few vials would be plenty.

This is the only logical reason why al-Quds would be telling the Iraq Intelligence Service what the Iraqi Government is going to do instead of the other way around.

When you think about it, it&#039;s very clever. Half the Arabs in the world would be all too eager to believe we used anthrax on Iraq. And the method of transmission would link it straight to us. The Jihad fighters we are facing now would be many times greater, enough to possibly save Saddam&#039;s regime.

It also would explain where some of that 17 tons of growth medium went as talked about in a post below.

Unless we see a translation that is different I think we have this:

Proof that Saddam had small amounts of anthrax.
Proof that Saddam would use non Iraqi terrorists to carry out a biological attack.

This is exactly the scenario that President Bush warned about, Saddam giving WMD to terrorists. This is the Mother of all Smoking Guns.</description>

		<description>OH MY GOD IS THERE AN UGLIER CUNT THAN CINDY SHEEHAN?! 

Comment by Az Joe 

&lt;b&gt;Hillary or Barbara Striesand?&lt;/b&gt;

YOUO COULD NOT BEAT A WOMAN ENOUGH TO MAKE HER THAT UGLY!

&lt;b&gt;You&#039;re a fine judge of horseflesh&lt;/b&gt;

WHY DO LEFTIST MALES LIKE TO TAKE COCK UP THEIR ASS? 

&lt;b&gt;You&#039;d have to ask Ryan &quot;FMFB&quot; Neat about that.

By the way, we don&#039;t use the &quot;C&quot; word around here. It really pisses off all the leftist homosexuals and most but not all of the conservative women. Try and have a little more class...K? &lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>Marie,
Are you saying that Richardson, Clinton&#039;s ambassador to the U.N. and Thomas Pickering were deliberately misinformed by the White House?  You know that would be the Clinton White House since Bush wasn&#039;t president yet in 1998.</description>
