Ok, he captured some alumni of the school, who said there was terrorist training there, and you are going to disbelieve it

I don't believe a captured enemy because he says what I want to hear. I want some hard coroboration. Different example....claims that Iraq and Al Quaeda were tied together. Al Quaeda wanted to overthrow the Iraq regime, it wasn't fundamentalist enough for OBL. There were TONS of documents that were pulled out of Tora Bora and there was not a single shred of evidence that there was any ties to Iraq.

If Saddam was training fedayeen for a guerilla war, they would have had to know how to attack soliders as well as civilians.

Guerrilla warfare is something altogether different and "IF" is a pretty important word. Then there's fedayeen which is nothing more than crazy special forces.

Most of us know he was engaged in regional terrorism. But there is no link to US terrorism. Ok- someone "passed through" Iraq. I've got much better links to the Saudis, and the Pakistanis, and the Philippines, and even the Germans and the US harboring terrorists who were targeting the US. I'm sure you have resources at your disposal which show you the same thing.
