you've got to know that at this point, after we've bombed the hell out of the place and there are no weapons to be found anywhere, and after getting virtually nothing from any of the "fugitives" we have captured from the iraqi cabinet, that this kind of thing seems really weak. I'm as upset about 911 as the next person, but lets not make complete fools of ourselves on the world stage (not that we haven't already) trying to concoct things like this. If there were real, unrefuted evidence of a link between OBL and Saddam Hussein we would have more than this, now. Intriguingly, the Iraqis talk about sending back an oral message to bin Laden, perhaps aware of the risk of a written message being intercepted. However, the documents do not mention if any meeting took place between bin Laden and Iraqi officials. yeah perhaps. Or perhaps there was nothing to send back, nothing transpired. Perhaps aware of the sensitivities of the subject matter, Iraqi agents at some point clumsily attempted to mask out all references to bin Laden, using white correcting fluid. The dried fluid was removed to reveal the clearly legible name three times in the documents. Sounds very official. Give me a break! Maybe a temp office worker blocked out OBLs name. Or maybe OBLs name isn't even there, kindof like WMDs weren't even there. You can't claim a smoking gun because somebody had a meeting with somebody else. There needs to be something more.

I'm telling you right now -- it'll get a great deal of short-term attention but little/no traction. The story "stinks to high heaven". Nobody with an nodding sense of objectivity will EVER believe this or any other "found/discovered" documents furnished by the USA or Brits having any credibility during an occupational phase. I love how they threw in the "French" dig -- they would have done better, and would've gained more credibility if that "all too convenient" part of the "oh so thick" plot was not added. Osama -- the Suni Muslim doing business with a secular leader of a mostly Shite Muslim nation? NOT!!!! I suppose then that these docs might tell us where Osama was on FEB 19 -- or whatever date referenced? This administration is great at finding everything but the actual person, place, or thing that would put closure to this sad chapter. By the way -- is Newt considered unpatriotic for attacking Powell during a WAR? Bush's ever-growing list of loose ends: Where is the Anthrax culprit? Where is Osama? Where is Saddam? Where is the WMD? Where have all our allies gone? Where are America's jobs? Where are the Medicare/healthcare reform/initiatives? Where are the education reform/initiatives? Where are the Social Security reform/initiatives? -JH

I see you are another one of the "Bush is an Idiot" believers Being from Texas, I saw Bush before he had the complete set of handlers manufacturing complete stage performances for him. He used to talk to the public more directly and never failed to show how limited his abilities really were. Now he is completely isolated from anyone but those who tell him what to do, and those who tell him how to do it. It's a much slicker package, but the ever deteriorating situations in the economy, the environment, and world tensions show the vaccum behind the slick. TP

THE MOST NAIVE CONTRIBUTOR ON THE THREAD? LindyBill, If we ran a contest for the most naive contributor on the thread, you'd certainly be in the running. The DailyTelegraph has been outted. It's an ideological shill and nothing more. Very recently, the George Galloway documents that were purportedly found by the Telegraph reporter, David Blair, who happened to be pawing through random documents at the Iraqi Foreign Minister's office, have been dismissed by most honest observers as MI6 plants. Certainly by me. Here's Galloway's statement: politics.guardian.co.uk These Daily Telegraph "discoveries" are highly reminiscent of the 'miraculous' discovery of Mohammed Atta's impeccably intact passport in the flaming ruins of the World Trade Center. Sometimes we just have to ask, how gullible do they really think we are? This latest nonsense trying to tie al Qaeda to the Hussein regime will be shown to have as much validity as the phony yellow cake contract between Iraq and Niger. Or Tony Blair's infamous incriminating Iraq "dossier" plagiarized from a class exercise a dozen years ago. Don't you see that the Daily Telegraph is going completely over the top to be the disinformation channel for "Coalition" intelligence psyops? How naive are you?
