"Kevin Brooks" wrote in message ... Who gave Al Zarqawi refuge? Who gave Abu Nidal refuge for a decade or so? Abu Abbas? Who delighted in butchering civilians? Who planned and actions that targeted US leaders (outside a time of war)? Answers: Saddam, Saddam, Saddam *and* OBL, and Saddam *and* OBL. All apparently true, and as I DID say earlier, no worse than other Arab countries with which the present administration is not at war. No, contrary to your assertion, the White House has apparently not been looking very hard for linkage between Saddam and AQ. There were some reports that senior AQ personnel visited Iraq, as guests of one of the Iraqi intelligence organizations, pre-war, traveling from Sudan. There is probaby a very good reason why you did not hear much about thoes allegations. Then there is the whole Al Zarqawi issue. But we have seen precious little indicating that the WH has been diligently searching for further evidence. As I previously noted... While you express an opinion that you'd like to see Al Zarqawi in a body bag, you don't seem to be very concerned over his reportedly being given refuge in Iraq by Saddam--why is that? Again, something I previously addressed. (sarcasm off) This is an interesting point! What law? Seriously; are you saying that Clinton "made" Bush attack Iraq? Or even that he set foreign policy that the Bush administration was powerless to change or ignore? PL 105-338, "The Iraqi Liberation Act", was indeed signed into law by Clinton. "It should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to remove the regime headed by Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and to promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime." Clinton signed it into law in 1998, after it was passed by the House 360-38, and by unanimous consent in the Senate. The goal was clearly stated. Thanks for the info. But I notice that you ignored my questions about the import of PL 105-338 to the present administration after berating me for simply not addressing each and every of your points. Please don't bother now, this exchange has gone long enough. Vaughn |
