"Ansar al-Islam?s base of operations in northern Iraq was annihilated by a salvo of cruise missiles early in the war" That's the Kurds territory which was not under Saddam's control.....but I think you know that.. re:"At Salman Pak airfield, a few miles southeast of Baghdad,Marines confirmed the existence of another terrorist camp,this one run by the government of Iraq." You have a reference on this one.?????? You're not refering to the St. Olaf Manitou Messenger are you.....a student newspaper written without any attributions?

Now, who's into 'revisionist history'? (Sure sounds like you.) Re: "The 15 Saudi's had long left Saudi Arabia & joined Bin Laden." >>> So WHAT? They were Saudi nationals, in-sync with the radical Whabbist Saudi fundamentalist beliefs. Saudi Arabia was (and still is) the LARGEST financer of al Qaeda, and one of the larger sources for recruits. >>> Iraqi efforts at terrorism over the years, by and large, (they attempted an amateurish round of terrorism after their Desert Storm defeat...) have been failures. He is a secularist, not a fundamentalist... and made war upon several terrorist groups who have threatened him in the past. Re: "Ansar al-Islam’s base of operations in northern Iraq..." >>> Don't you EVEN KNOW that Ansar al-Islam is an Iranian -affiliated Shiite terrorist group? Working within a few miles of the Iranian border... within a wild Kurdish portion of Iraq under the Northern 'No-Fly Zone', completely out from under Saddam's control for at least the last 8 years or so? >>> Geeze, why don't you blame the I.R.A. on him too, and the Peruvian rebels? (Maybe the Contras & Chicago Fire, while you're at it.) >>> He's a power-mad, murderous, Stalin-loving Dictator... but he ain't responsible for every creepy-crawly in the World. Geeze, get off of it!
