There was enough of an operational relationship between al Qaeda and Iraq, that the United States blew up the only pharmaceutical plant in the Sudan. Former Secretary of Defense Cohen defended the attack and repeated the Clinton Administration's view (that al Qaeda and Iraq were in the process of cooking chemical weapons in the Sudan) to the 9-11 Commission. Richard Clarke mentions a linkage between al Qaeda, Iraq, and the bombing of the Sudanese "chemical plant" in his book. As far as I know, hindsight has not changed the view of either man.

Further, at least one member of Abu Sayyaf has admitted that Iraq (under Saddam) had offered a bounty for killing Americans.
