Check this April '02 re-print of a Christian Science Monitor article I found at a State Department web site:

Thanks for this post, C. I do recall this part of The New Yorker story and if that's what you were referring to in your earlier post, then I understand.

There are two problems with this story.

1. We shall never know it's truth. The counter argument to the claims in the story is that, because of the intense interest of the Kurds in undermining Saddam, the story is fictional. I recall putting it in some sort of mental brackets after reading it at the time. Nothing has been said since then to pull it out of the brackets.

2. The story is not about 9-11 but rather about Saddam's possible attack on US facilities in the ME. Since those attacks were ongoing during the 90s, this story makes more sense as one part of that campaign than a part of 9-11. Do you know something that connects it to 9-11?
