<Although there is no established connection between Saddam and 9/11, it is conceivable that a smoking gun will turn up in Iraqi documents. It is not a settled and indisputable fact, it is an allegation without substantiation.> No one "alleges" that Saddam was not involved in 911, there simply is nothing, no information and no reason, that would lead to the conclusion that he was in any way involved. The same is probably true about you. There is no information or reason to believe that you, Necon, were a perpetrator of 911. That again is not an allegation.

You allege that Saddam was in some way involved -- and it is precisely this allegation of his involvement that is entirely without substantiation. If serious foreign policy decisions are based on allegations that are indeed pure speculation without foundation (or even logic), you have bad decisions and those decision-makers that need to be fired.
