Nadine,

Once again, no direct link to suggest Saddam has passed biologic weapons to Palestinian terrorist groups. Any claims have only been intelligence estimates without any basis of facts.

Let's look at this situation from a common sense approach.

In the recent occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip by the IDF and the numerous infrastructures that have been raided and searched, there has never been a single incident in which a biologic lab or traces of biologic weapons were discovered. There have been many bomb-making facilities which have been located and destroyed but no weapons of mass destruction were found. These are the facts.

If Israeli intelligence can pinpoint the exact timing and location of a prominent militant Hamas leader, in hiding, designated for assassination by a one ton bomb in the occupied territories, the odds of the Israelis uncovering a biologic weapons program fostered by Palestinian terrorist groups is high. And Sharon is just waiting for that opportunity to present to Bush the smoking gun needed to legitimize the invasion of Iraq.

The reason there is no evidence to suggest Saddam has given any biologic weapons to Palestinians terrorist groups is obvious: it has not occurred.
