Montgomery Burns Posted March 5, 2005 Author Report Posted March 5, 2005 CNN is not a digital cable channel. Brilliant observation. Now can you please look up the word 'projection'? U.S. "all wrong" on WMD: reportNo Evidence Connecting Iraq to Al Qaeda, 9/11 Panel Says From the Washington Post article you cite: "There is "no credible evidence" that Saddam Hussein's government in Iraq collaborated with the al Qaeda terrorist network on any attacks on the United States..." Once again CBC Boy blindly follows what his socialist slavemasters tell him. Others, like me, tend to dig a little further beccause of the lies that are constantly told by the leftwing media. And once again, the leftwing media is caught in another lie. Whoops. There is no reference to "no credible evidence" in the 9/11 report. The Post just made it up. No wonder they are derided as the Washington ComPost. But there is credible reports out there. Things like this: Saddam's ties to Al Qaeda and international terrorism. Perhaps a little more reading and a little less game-playing might help you. Yes, a little more reading and a little less reliance on Dan "unimpeachable sources" Rather might help. Might. Unlike you, I don't associate popularity with quality. That's rich...coming from someone who constantly sticks up for the CBC and its 5% ratings share. I hope you aren't thinking of investing in the stock market. One Fifth Estate program is hardly apeshit What about the 3 references to Fox News on the National? They showed their penis envy that day. Their inferiority complex was there for all to see. I don't remember them ranting about Jihad TV (Al Jazeera) being approved in Canada.

Black Dog Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 And once again, the leftwing media is caught in another lie. Wow. Do you ever get tired of being wrong? National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States: Staff Statement #15 Bin Ladin also explored possible cooperation with Iraq during his time in Sudan, despite his opposition to Hussein's secular regime. Bin Ladin had in fact at one time sponsored anti-Saddam Islamists in Iraqi Kurdistan. The Sudanese, to protect their own ties with Iraq, reportedly persuaded Bin Ladin to cease this support and arranged for contacts between Iraq and Al Qaeda. A senior Iraqi intelligence officer reportedly made three visits to Sudan, finally meeting Bin Ladin in 1994. Bin Ladin is said to have requested space for training camps, as well as assistance in procuring weapons, but Iraq apparently never responded. There have been reports that contacts between Iraq and al Qaeda also occurred after Bin Ladin had returned to Afghanistan, but they do not appear to have resulted in a collaborative relationship. Two senior Al Qaeda associates have adamantly denied and ties existed between al Qaeda and Iraq. We have no credible evidence that Iraq and al Qaeda cooperated on attacks against the United States. Loser. Quote
Shakeyhands Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 But BlackDog, the Republicans continued to march through FNC to prove there was, here is an example of how there was a Dem Congresswoman and a Rep Congressman who were on "The Big Story With John Gibson," Oct. 6, 2004. Both are discussing with Mr Gibson wether there was a connection or not, while the Congresswoman cites the Commision and says there were no ties, the Congressman stamps hs feet and says there was. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,134765,00.html but as usual FNC and the Republicans can't seem to get there stories in synch... now there is no link, this was posted on Monday, September 13, 2004 "From this day forward, this administration should never suggest that there is." Colin Powell Sec. of State http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,132188,00.html thats odd? I guess though when it comes to election stumping, any lie goes.... further.... At the RNC Gen. Tommy Franks (btw, I think Tommy is kind of whimpy, should have stuck with Tom) said: We removed a regime with well documented ties to terrorists - like al Qaeda murderer Abu Zarqawi. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,131324,00.html and then we also have this : http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,126722,00.html Yet FNC still espouses that there were ties.... how can they continue to talk out of both sides of theri mouths? They truely are the media wing of the Republican Party. Lies to justify whatever ends that the RP needs. Quote "They muddy the water, to make it seem deep." - Friedrich Nietzsche
Black Dog Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 Republican lies are like cockroaches: they thrive in the dark amidst the filth and are very hard to kill. Nevermind that so many of the alleged connections between AQ and Iraq have been debunked. They are fundamentally no different from the type of conspiracy theorys we see that blame the U.S. diectly for 9-11, or claim that the Holocaust never happened. They involve seizing on scraps of questionable evidence and moulding them into a story that sounds plausible, but don't hold up under scruitiny. My favorite one of thse nugets is the Salman Pak story. The fundamental flaw of this fish story is that, if the Bush administration tryluy had such "smoking gun" evidence linking Iraq to 9-11, they would be pushing that line hard. Instead, we get statements from the government and from U.S. intelligence sources categorically denying an Iraqi connection to 9-11. Quote
