about those imaginary iraqi terror links
Surprise! Saddam Hussein had links to terrorist organizations. You need a moment? It’s okay. I’ll wait.
. . .
Project Harmony, which is sifting through hundreds of thousands of captured documents from the previous regime, released a report on the various links that Ba’athist Iraq provided training, intelligence, or materiel to groups as diverse as:
* Hamas;
* The Army of Muhammad–a Bahraini terror group linked to Osama bin Laden;
* The Egyptian Islamic Jihad;
* The Palestinian Liberation Front, in addition to Yasser Arafat’s goons;
* Islamists in Somalia, where al-Qaeda was fighting against a US humanitarian mission;
* Sudanese fighters–how about that Darfur, eh?
But, hey, we could’ve just hugged ourselves out of those strategic dangers.
