"April 27, 2007

WELL, THIS IS NICE: "The al-Qaeda leader who is thought to have devised the plan for the July 7 suicide bombings in London and an array of terrorist plots against Britain has been captured by the Americans. Abd al-Hadi al-Iraqi, a former major in Saddam Hussein’s army, was apprehended as he tried to enter Iraq from Iran and was transferred this week to the 'high-value detainee programme' at Guantanamo Bay."

Hey, wait -- an "al-Qaeda leader" who's also a "former major in Saddam Hussein's army"? But I thought there was no connection between Saddam and Al Qaeda. Or between Al Qaeda and Iran . . . ."

        When the Department of Denfense says that WMD have been found in Iraq, that is good enough for me. - REB - 5/1/2007 1:39:58 PM

        Do you have any valid evidence as to why the Department of Defense is not a valid source. - REB - 5/1/2007 4:51:10 PM
