As usual the conga line make excuses for their gutless leader. Adel  is not advocating for war with any country, he is asking why the women basher prefers to bash women and third world countries while cowering in the corner when it comes to the big boys. So far, the conga line have only made excuses and abused the messenger, showing they are no better than the women basher.

Sure can, mate: Google.

Iraq was thought to have al-Qaeda training camps within its geographical territory ... which it did, just inside its north-eastern border.

WASHINGTON (CNN)  -- The U.S. military's first and only study looking into ties between Saddam Hussein's Iraq and al Qaeda showed no connection between the two, according to a military report released by the Pentagon.

The report released by the Joint Forces Command five years after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq said it found no "smoking gun" after reviewing about 600,000 Iraqi documents captured in the invasion and looking at interviews of key Iraqi leadership held by the United States, Pentagon officials said.

The assessment of the al Qaeda connection and the insistence that Hussein had weapons of mass destruction were two primary elements in the Bush administration's arguments in favour of going to war with Iraq.

The Pentagon's report also contradicts then-Secretary of Defence Donald Rumsfeld, who said in September 2002 that the CIA provided "bulletproof" evidence demonstrating "that there are, in fact, al Qaeda in Iraq."

Saddam Hussein used terror on his own people to remain in power but he was not linked to al Qaeda.....You are incorrect!!!

Roll the tape back again and you'll see I never said Saddam was linked to al-Qaeda.

At one time I personally knew of militia training operations being conducted by Croatian friends of mine in bushland outside of Sydney in preparation for the Bosnian war ... but that's not to say that Australia was 'linked' to the Bosnia-Croatian war efforts.

Iraq was thought to have al-Qaeda training camps within its geographical territory ... which it did, just inside its north-eastern border.

Founded in October 2004, al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) emerged from a transnational terrorist group created and led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. The original iteration of the group, Bayat al Imam, began in Jordan in the early 1990s.

The group first associated with al Qaeda’s senior leadership in 1999 and fought alongside al Qaeda core and the Taliban during the U.S. strikes in Afghanistan in late 2001. Shortly after, the group transferred to Iraq in anticipation of the U.S.-led invasion.

From 2003 through 2007, the group galvanized the Iraqi insurgency until its high-profile, divisively brutal tactics and failure to deliver meaningful gains to its nominal constituents led to a reversal in its popularity.

The death of Zarqawi in 2006 has been followed with a series of successful counterterror strikes against his successors. Nonetheless, the group has proven resilient and though its activities are greatly diminished since its operational peak in 2007, it has proven still capable of carrying out high-profile attacks, particularly against soft targets.
