Would the Al-Qaeda sleeper cells put in place in Iraq before the war be "cooperation"?

Reporting since [February] suggests that senior Al Qaida associate Abu Musab al Zarqawi has established sleeper cells in Baghdad,to be activated during a US occupation of the city. These cells apparently intend to attack US targets using car bombs and other weapons. (It is also possible that they have received CB materials from terrorists in the KAZ.) Al Qaida-associated terrorists continued to arrive in Baghdad in early March.

        Locating in the Capital of Iraq is a little more specific than "same geographical area" - RobVG - 7/14/2004 9:15:24 PM
