Saddam's Terrorist Connections in 1999

The incredible JVeritas continues to translate the Iraqi Documents released by the Bush Administration. The translations are posted over at FreeRepublic and at JVeritas' blog.

Today's translation is further documentation of Saddam Hussein's ties to non-Iraqi terrorists.

"Earlier we have seen the translation of document ISGP-2003-00028868 (see where it talks about Training Non Iraqi Foreign Arab Terrorists in February 2003 to help the Iraqis in their war against the coalition forces. Some may have dismissed this document by saying that the Iraqis wanted every possible help on the eve of the war, and thus they argued that there was no connection between Saddam and terrorists. However now comes this Iraqi Intelligence document CMPC-2003-005935 dated November 22 1999 and it talks about the plan for the year 2000 and that includes the Training of Arab Feedayeens which mean training non Iraqi Foreign Arab Terrorists. Who are those Feedayeen Foreign Arab Terrorists? Are they Al Qaeda, Hamas, etc…? This document is another proof of Saddam great connection to Terrorism and dated back to the year 1999-2000, a long rooted connection to terrorism."

Pay close attention to the date of this document - November 1999. This was before President Bush took office and before the USS Cole bombing. This document further unravels the "Saddam was no threat" meme being floated by the Left. As usual, the silence from the Mainstream Enemedia is deafening....
