Saddam Trained 9/11 Planner

For years the Democrats and their parrots in the MSM have been on a kick that Iraq and Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with 9/11. It would appear that the 9/11 mastermind, Mohammad Atta, was trained in Iraq. There should be no question about Hussein’s involvement because the memo that was written was to him:

Iraq’s coalition government claims that it has uncovered documentary proof that Mohammed Atta, the al-Qaeda mastermind of the September 11 attacks against the US, was trained in Baghdad by Abu Nidal, the notorious Palestinian terrorist.

Details of Atta’s visit to the Iraqi capital in the summer of 2001, just weeks before he launched the most devastating terrorist attack in US history, are contained in a top secret memo written to Saddam Hussein, the then Iraqi president, by Tahir Jalil Habbush al-Tikriti, the former head of the Iraqi Intelligence Service.

The handwritten memo, a copy of which has been obtained exclusively by the Telegraph, is dated July 1, 2001 and provides a short resume of a three-day “work programme” Atta had undertaken at Abu Nidal’s base in Baghdad.

In the memo, Habbush reports that Atta “displayed extraordinary effort” and demonstrated his ability to lead the team that would be “responsible for attacking the targets that we have agreed to destroy”.

It is clear by the statement “the targets we agreed to destroy”, that Hussein was aware of the attacks and the memo clearly indicates that he had something to do with training the guy.

I am sure this will be big news, that is if the MSM actually reports it.

    The TSM (Terrorist Supporting Media – old MSM) will not report it since it makes Bush look good. Its just that simple.

    Wow, I go away for a couple of weeks and everything looks different. Looks great, actually. I missed a lot of good blogging here, I’m going to have to take a little time and go back and read what I missed.

    This memo or another like it was available almost 2 years ago, the MSN did not report it then, and they will not report it now!

    With the MSN we are caught between a rock and a hard place, with few options to deal with them; with that in mind I have been taking the following two approaches:
    1. I have reported CNN to the FCC for engaging in political partisanship in the guise of news, and airing graphic violence.
    2. I inform advertisers that as the head of household, I will boycott their products and encourage others to do the same based upon their support of the MSN.

    My voice may be miniscule but it is my option, and I am sure that if a few million citizens did the same it would have at least some impact.
