Ah, the power of the media to deceive & distort.

Iraq & 9/11
Iraq & Al Qaeda

Don't confuse the huge difference between these two
different issues. That's what your article cleverly did.

Your article does not make any case that the Bush
Administration attempted to link Iraq to 9/11. That's a
fact.

Your article tries to use the investigation into 9/11, to
falsely claim there was no Iraq/Al Qaeda link. The 9/11
investigation never looked into the link between Iraq & Al
Qaeda. Your article is being cunningly deceptive because of
politicians & liberal media outlets repeated lies that Bush
claimed a link between Iraq & 9/11. They used that false
allegation, then they state there was no link between Iraq
& Al Qaeda. This investigation was never about an Iraq/Al
Qaeda link.

The Bush Administration made links between Iraq & Al Qaeda.
They made absolutely no claims that Iraq was involved in
9/11. You can't seem to separate the obvious differences
here. And your article is relying on your confusion so they
can deceptively claim that the 9/11 report doesn't mention
any Iraq/Al Qaeda link when that investigation had nothing
to do with this link. It was about 9/11 so there is
absolutely no reason for it to mention a link between Iraq
& Al Qaeda.

You need to read your article objectively.

The article I linked you to makes absolutely no reference
to a Bush Administration official linking Iraq to 9/11. If
anything the article discusses, "U.S. officials, however,
said they had no evidence that Atta ever went to Prague,
and had indications that he might have been in the United
States when the meeting supposedly took place.".

The only reference to Iraq & 9/11 is CNN's own reference to
the theory that there was a link, but the article does not
link the theory to any Bush Administration officials.

Both articles support my POV.

You need to read objectively. Even then you can't be sure
your favorite politicians or your favorite media outlets
aren't lying or repeating lies as I just clearly showed.....
