stock, seriously. i believe in some stupid shit, just for the sake of believing it. (aliens, ghosts, everything paranormal possible) but even i don't believe that saddam and osama would talk civilly, much less plot together.
Just wait until the beginning of August when Stocky has his annual jerk-fest over the Hiroshima/Nagasaki bombings. Nothing like seeing someone reveling in the deaths of hundreds of thousands.
Messrs. Hayes and Joscelyn raise, with good reason, the question of why Saddam gave haven to Abdul Rahman Yasin, one of the men who in 1993 helped make the bomb that ripped through the parking garage of the World Trade Center. They detail a contact between Iraqi intelligence and several of the Sept. 11 hijackers in Malaysia, the year before al Qaeda destroyed the twin towers. They recount the intersection of Iraqi and al Qaeda business interests in Sudan, via, among other things, an Oil for Food contract negotiated by Saddam's regime with the al-Shifa facility that President Clinton targeted for a missile attack following the African embassy bombings because of its apparent connection to al Qaeda. And there is plenty more.
Don't forget that one of the tactics of the far left is that if they say something enought times that the feeble minded will believe it.

I swear if I see another bullshit thread like the one from last August I will kill something.

That's a tactic of the "Far Left"alone? You can't possibly be serious.
I never said that it was a tactic of the "far left" alone.
It's a tactic used by many including the far right, the moral majority and Microsoft.
All I meant to point out was that if you looked at the discussion thus far that, with the exception of S5, most people were just restating the "party line" but not presenting any facts to back it up.
The real point I would like to make is that everyone should search out the facts on their own and not let a voice that is constantly telling them what to think sway them.

Actually the Wall Street Journal in 2005 has an article showing the obvious connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda.
It would have been better to link to the original article that the opinion piece was about.
That would be a nice idea except for the fact that the Wall Street Journal article is dated 5 days before your link.
It's for the July 18 print issue and was posted, at the latest, on the 12th (based on forum threads I've found linking to it). If you'd notice, the WSJ opinion piece mentioned it by title and author, cited it as the primary reference and discussed its findings and interpretations -- not to mention that it was linked by a large number of sites the same time that opinion piece came out.
Check out the results of this Google search, for example.
No good deed goes unpunished, eh? I just thought that if you wanted people to take the ideas seriously it might be a good idea to, you know, go to the source.
