<font size=4>In an interview with the new leader of Iraq, Tom Brokaw gets an answer he never anticipated.
<font size=3><font color=blue>
Brokaw: I know that you and others like you are grateful for the liberation of Iraq. But can’t you understand why many Americans feel that so many young men and women have died here for purposes other than protecting the United States?
<font size=4>
Allawi: We know that this is an extension to what has happened in New York. And — the war have been taken out to Iraq by the same terrorists. Saddam was a potential friend and partner and natural ally of terrorism.
<font size=3>
Brokaw: Prime minister, I’m surprised that you would make the connection between 9/11 and the war in Iraq. The 9/11 commission in America says there is no evidence of a collaborative relationship between Saddam Hussein and those terrorists of al-Qaida.
<font size=4>
Allawi: No. I believe very strongly that Saddam had relations with al-Qaida. And these relations started in Sudan. We know Saddam had relationships with a lot of terrorists and international terrorism. Now, whether he is directly connected to the September — atrocities or not, I can’t — vouch for this. But definitely I know he has connections with extremism and terrorists.

Among the others who will be tried with Saddam Hussein are his old deputy prime minister Tariq Aziz and the man known as “Chemical Ali,” Ali Hassan al Majid.

Yet another person who feels that our leaders were not wrong to see a link between Saddam Hussein and terrorism.
