"But the CIA and FBI concluded months ago that they had no hard evidence to confirm claims that the Prague meeting took place.

"A federal law-enforcement official said yesterday, however, that the FBI has been reviewing Atta's possible ties to Iraq, including travel and phone records, with "renewed vigor" in recent weeks. Until now, the administration has largely argued that military action against Iraq is justified because of the danger the regime is secretly building nuclear, chemical or biological weapons that could be used against the United States or its allies. On Tuesday, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told a news conference that Iraq had "a relationship" with al-Qaida, but declined to be more specific."

When they've looked this long and this hard to come up with something, anything, and haven't found anything the CIA and/or FBI won't corroberate, they ain't got nothing.

They'd show it if they did. They'd trot it out, they'd have a "perp walk" like you would believe.

They'd even leak it.

The White House has it's own agenda they are trying desperately (that word again) to sell and are having to make up stuff.

Scares some folks to have the White House making up stuff like this. Makes some of us believe GWB wants the Middle-sized War before the November elections, because if the Rs lose the House and Senate maybe we can put off a police state until 2004 and the Big War.
