How is Iraq spreading terror around the world? Where? How? For openers, Saddam Hussein is PAYING the families of Palestinian suicide bombers for their terrorist actions. But there is no question that Saddam has malicious intent toward the United States -- hell, they take shots at our aircraft on a daily basis. And now, we have found out that Saddam is harboring Al Qaeda terrorists in Baghdad. Quoting the State Department: "Iraq has provided bases to the Mujahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), the Palestine Liberation Front (PLF), and the Abu Nidal organization (ANO). In 2001, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) raised its profile in the West Bank and Gaza Strip by carrying out successful terrorist attacks against Israeli targets. Iraqi Vice President met with former PFLP Secretary General Habbash in Baghdad in January 2001 and expressed continued Iraqi support for the intifadah. Also, in mid-September, a senior delegation from the PFLP met with an Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister. Baghdad also continued to host other Palestinian rejectionist groups, including the Arab Liberation Front, and the 15 May Organization." We need far more consensus building imo. We had 8 years of "consensus building", effectively allowing other nations to run our foreign policy. Other nations can't be counted on to serve our interests and their own at the same time. Unfortunately, this kind of selling out of American sovereignty is what the Democrats have now come to. Sickening, but absolutely true.
