chinu. You said...."Saddam supported the Palestenian cause. He did not support Al Qaeda.".....

The congress of the United States of America disagrees with you.....but hey maybe you are better informed that them. Seems as though you are ALWAYS WRONG.

Whereas members of al-Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq;

Congressional Resolution on Iraq (Passed by House and Senate October 2002)

Whereas the United States is determined to prosecute the war on terrorism and Iraq's ongoing support for international terrorist groups combined with its development of weapons of mass destruction in direct violation of its obligations under the 1991 cease-fire and other United Nations Security Council resolutions make clear that it is in the national security interests of the United States and in furtherance of the war on terrorism that all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions be enforced, including through the use of force if necessary;

Whereas members of al-Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq;

SEC. 3. AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES.

(a) AUTHORIZATION- The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to

(1) defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq; and

(2) enforce all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq.

Re: "But to say that Saddam OK'd collusion with the Al Qaeda for 9/11 is preposterous..."

I didn't say that, but I certainly said I think it is likely, given the plain evidence of Saddam's approval/support of 9/11.

Your tale of the differences between Al Qaeda and Saddam pales in comparison with the known facts of the matter.
