No al Qaeda - Saddam Connection? Think Again.

Perish the Thought


I wonder if the Iraqi Study Commission will be updated.


When the Commission found no "conclusive" evidence of a connection between al Qaeda and Saddam or Iraq, did everyone accept that finding as "conclusive?"

No. Common sense prevailed for many of us.


If the wise leaders who contributed to that Commission had a "do over," would their conclusions be any different?


Look ------- when the GWOT was initiated, there were admitted errors in the preliminary planning. But the core principles were right-on, based on available intelligence and common sense. As more of Saddam's documents are translated and more al Qaeda figure-heads are captured, more will be learned.


And confirmed, no less.
