But it does have the intention of driving Western interests from the region,

Even if it did have the intention, it didn't have the means to do so.

to become the hegemonic power in the re- establishment of Arab ascendancy,

Yeah, right. So much so that even the Kurds had nothing to fear from Saddam.

and it has yet to fulfill its promise to unleash terror on the United States in payment for the first Gulf War.

Wow! We waited for 12 years for them to attack us but they didn't. Since they didn't fulfil their "promise", we attacked them! If Ari Fleischer is still looking for an assistant, he can stop looking now!

<<There is no proof that Iraq had a role in 9/11, that is true.>>

Possibly an indirect role in that American forces were in Saudi Arabia to enforce the no fly zone which aggravated bin Laden. Also Saddam was the money launder for the attacks on the Israelis. Kept that fire going.

Direct role seems to be more in the nature of aiding the training for the attack.

No matter what, still a festering boil on the face of the world.
