Ah, good post, Publius. You've touched on a key issue.
The al Qaeda-Saddam link, if there was one (and I beleive there was), ran through Iraq's Unit 999 of the Istikhbarat, or Military Intelligence.
Here Dan Darling matches up the unit 999 battalions with their public faces. There were reports earlier this year that Mohammed Atta actually travelled to Iraq and met up with Abu Nidal in 2001. The FBI, citing Atta's electronic tail (ATM, credit card use, etc.), disputed it. I am not so quick to rule it out. His trail during that period seems just a little too random.
I don't really have time to go into it deeper right now. But I hope you'll understand that these alleged connections aren't simply conjured out of thin air.
