Then there was the weapons and money Saddam supplied to the Palestinian terrorists...$25,000 to the family of each suicide bomber. "Facts and logic" alert. Money and weapons aren't the same thing, and the families of suicide bombers aren't necessarily terrorists. Without looking it up, I'd guess that the Yassin thing is a Mylroie invention of some sort. Oops, I looked it up anyway, I guess Yassin engineered the WTC bombing from Israeli prison, cool: In 1989 Yassin allegedly authorized the killing of Palestinians believed to be collaborating with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Israel accused Yassin of ordering the execution of two captured Israeli soldiers, a crime for which he was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to life imprisonment by an Israeli military court. [edit] Release and later life In 1997 Yassin was released from Israeli prison as part of an arrangement with Jordan following a failed assassination attempt of Khaled Mashal conducted by the Israeli Mossad in Jordan. Yassin was released by Israel in exchange for two Mossad agents who had been arrested by Jordanian authorities, on condition that he refrain from calling for suicide bombings against Israel. en.wikipedia.org
