The Telegraph is reporting that a document it has obtained
directly links Saddam with the 9/11 attacks:
Iraq's coalition government claims that it has uncovered documentary proof that Mohammed Atta, the al-Qaeda mastermind of the September 11 attacks against the US, was trained in Baghdad by Abu Nidal, the notorious Palestinian terrorist.
Details of Atta's visit to the Iraqi capital in the summer of 2001, just weeks before he launched the most devastating terrorist attack in US history, are contained in a top secret memo written to Saddam Hussein, the then Iraqi president, by Tahir Jalil Habbush al-Tikriti, the former head of the Iraqi Intelligence Service.
Not only does the document link Saddam with 9/11 but it also validates the Niger uranium shipment that caused so much debate earlier in the year:
The second part of the memo, which is headed "Niger Shipment", contains a report about an unspecified shipment - believed to be uranium - that it says has been transported to Iraq via Libya and Syria.
If this document is proven to be authentic all those who have claimed George W. Bush lied about the reasons for invading Iraq will have a lot of explaining to do. The poor Democrats will offically have lost the 2004 election and the scramble to avoid being the poor sucker to run against G.W. will be entertaining to watch.
