I just wanted to point that out :)
You know I respect you, but I have to politely disagree here. al-Qaida and the Bathe party hate each other. Saddam and the Bathe Party don't have any ties to bin Laden or al-Qaida. The US hired bin Laden during Gulf 1 to try to kill Saddam for us. We even gave al-Qaida the weapons and training to do it. (Hindsight being 20/20 that probably wasn't our best move.)

Like you, I also believe the WMDs exist (I think they are probably in Iran or Syria as well.) but we gave the world like 6 weeks notice before going in to Iraq so there was plenty of time for them to be relocated. I'm pretty sure the US government could have seen that coming because I did and I dont have the CIA's access to info.

al-Qaida is in Iraq now because that's where we are. They weren't there when we went in and there are no ties between Hussein and al-Qaida in terms of 9-11. (According to the report filed by the 9/11 Commission at least.) Saddam hasn't ever funded al-Qaida, like I said... It was just about a decade ago that we hired al-Qaida to kill Saddam. I have never seen anything other than individual's speculation to signify any sort of partnership between those two organizations. (Why would they even need his money? Bin Laden's got plenty of cash.)
