Oh, sorry. Didn't know you were one of the in-denial illiterates Woolsey was referring to.

So you think that shooting Islamic fundamentalists could somehow be an indication that Saddam and Al Queda had problems with each other? I don't get it. How would the fact that Saddam was hated by the fundamentalists and the fact that he killed their clerics with regularity somehow signal that they weren't working hand in hand? Or is it the fact that the same arguments that are being made for "cooperation" based upon "contacts" between post occupied Iraq and Al Queda, could also be made for "cooperation" based on "contacts" between the United States and Al Queda connected individuals, or Saudi, or Jordanian, or Palestinian, or French, or German, or-you get the idea? It's those that think critically who are unconvinced; it doesn't take much to convince the rabid. The noise put out by the extremists is just for the pigs feeding at the trough. It passes for substance and fattens them up for processing later.
