Senate Intelligence Report Finds No Connection
(2006-09-09) — Just a day after the Senate Intelligence committee released a report [PDF] finding no pre-war connection between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda, aides said unpublished findings of the committee’s probe also indicate no verifiable link between the senate and intelligence.
“Senate intelligence turns out to be a misnomer, or perhaps an oxymoron,” said one unnamed aide. “Our research turned up no substantial connections…nothing but hearsay from unreliable witnesses.”
The 151-page published report would seem to refute the Bush administration’s pre-war claims of a Hussein-Qaeda link, the source said, as well as the committee’s post-war claim to be conducting a thorough investigation.
Stuff and nonsense, it is.

I read this morning that 36% of Americans believe that 9/11 was orchestrated, or at least allowed to happen by the Bush admisitration. Has 1/3 of this country lost their freaking minds?????????????????????????????

Oh Marge! You poor thing. What a squishy mess.
Are we allowed to digress to one of Scott’s previous stories? I just happened to think of something regarding this ABC Miniseries thing…Does anybody remember the story of the Tell-tale Heart by Poe? Clinton and his gang remind me of the main character. They’ve not seen the movie but they are screaming about what might be in it.
In Poe’s story, the murderer buries the dismembered body under the floor. The neighbors had heard a scream, call the police and the police come to investigate the whole complex. The murderer is cool as a cucumber when he meets the three policemen and knows that he has committed the perfect crime. But THEN he hears the heart beating. He thinks everyone else can hear it too (they can’t cuz it’s in his pea brain) and finally, in his paranoia he screams that he did it and shows them where the body is buried. Clinton thinks that he knows what is in this movie and wants it pulled. Seems to me paranoia of reality strikes again.
And on a final note, not to defame “The Devil Wears Prada” I think that IF ABC shows this thing, they need to change the title to “This Brothel Airs Pravda”.

Ahhh, once again the culture of denial rears its ugly head in the Senate.
Even President Clinton made the connection and Senators have resorted to calling documents fraudulent or not “independently verifibal” thus justifying their conclusions. Yet even foreign news sources not enamored with President Bush have truthfully documented the links between Saddam’s regime and al Qaeda as well as that of other Muslim terrorist organizations.
And isn’t it interesting that the same CIA which documented those links in some cases have done 180s and bought into the culture of denial in order to appease the rising blame-Bush tide.
Even the original 911 commission itself documented the first tantalizing glimpses of these linkages that the more partisan Democrat members associated with the commission immediately pooh-poohed, thus establishing the first real foundations for this culture of denial.
Other reports have to be ignored and the latest Senate report raised to the level of the Oracle of Delphi to come to the rash conclusions the radical left and the liberal media are coming to despite the fact that hundreds of thousands of Iraqi documents still need to be translated and evaluated - and some of the latest documents which have do indeed paint a picture of some kind of mutual relationship between al Qaeda operatives and Saddam’s regime.
Even during major combat operations of 2003, British combat units were able to gain intelligence from Iraqi prisoners that al Qaeda members were fighting along side Iraqi regulars. Of course all this swept under the rug by those who have the most to gain by “proving” there was no link or even al Qaeda members in Iraq before Coalition forces attacked in 2003.
Even entire books like Stephen Hayes, The Connection have to be pooh-poohed or studiously ignored. Yet isn’t it interesting how moonbats and the liberal media can give credence to such ridiculous conspiracy theories like the American government was complicit in bringing down the towers on 9/11 in face of the fact that Usama bin Laden has taken complete credit for this atrocity even in his latest video release of “old” footage, but somehow it becomes impossible to believe that Saddam’s regime and various Muslim terrorist organizations, including al Qaeda, didn’t have ANY linkage? This certainly strains credulity given the kinship all Muslims have when it comes to plotting and warring against infidels.

Jay Rockefeller has a very selective memory. Here is an excerpt from his October 2002 floor speech:
“Saddam’s existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before, both against Iraq’s enemies and against his own people. He is working to develop delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could bring these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the Middle East. And he could make those weapons available to many terrorist groups which have contact with his government, and those groups could bring those weapons into the U.S. and unleash a devastating attack against our citizens.”

Flashback: NBC Reported Missed Bin Laden Opportunity by Clinton in March 2004
Comment by JamesonLewis3rd — September 9, 2006 @ 10:44 pm
And then there is the matter of Osama bin Laden and his network of jihadists, al-Qaida. In his autobiography, “My Life,” Clinton writes of a difficult period in 1998 when he was trying to salvage his marriage while also confronting al-Qaida attacks on U.S. embassies. On vacation with Hillary, he said, “I spent the first couple of days alternating between begging forgiveness and planning the strikes on al-Qaida.”
That about says it all, doesn’t it? Even Clinton, with his legendary ability to “compartmentalize,” couldn’t possibly have concentrated fully on the threat. He was not only distracted, but he was also boxed in by the scandal. Any attempt to deal more harshly with bin Laden would have been derided by political foes accusing him of trying to divert the public’s attention.
In “My Life,” Clinton owns up to his sins, admitting that “what I had done with Monica Lewinsky was immoral and foolish.” But he also spends a vast treasury of words to prove that a cabal of ultraconservatives was determined to wreck his presidency. He’s right. They were.
But they weren’t elected president. He was.

Most of us have never forgotten the horrors of 9/11 and the escalating atrocities that led to its spectacular slaughter. The Klintoon Kabal may be successful in putting a legalistic kibbosh on the fifth “anniversary” docu-drama of the event that should have rallied all Americans in a wake-up call. After all, the Left has always viewed the Islamo-terrorist threat as a legal issue. The Lewinsky damage-control diversion was always small potatoes to Bubba in not taking on Bin Laden when the al-Qaeda mastermind was several times in his sights. “Boy Clinton,” as Bin Laden called him, was biding his time for a tight legal case in pursuing the brazen leader of jihad.
It’s too bad that our self-professed enemies were not in the market for legal niceties. As this (graphic) video retrospective of the emboldened Islamic jihad attacks demonstrates, Bubba Boy cannot rewrite history “to preserve his legacy”. As Clinton’s ambitious consort was wont to shrill, “What did he know, and when did he know it?” I would further add: And what did he do when the opportunity knocked to meet like with like and to kill the rotting fish at its head?
What lessons about meeting this serious Islamojihad threat to our nation’s security will America derive as we reflect on this sad anniversary? I believe that is the point of “The Path to 9/11″.

As I read some of the hilarious things the LLL are saying in their berserk eruptions concerning The Docudrama (we needn’t bother to name it anymore, as its infamy has now spread to the farthest corners of the Universe) I came up with a solution:
When what’s-his-name hangs up on the CIA guy, to avoid telling them to exterminate UBL while they had the chance, they should superimpose the word “METAPHOR” on the scene. Because, even if he didn’t actually do that, he still did that.

Over at NRO, Jonah Goldberg links to a piece about the significance of 9/11…1565. Muslim jihadists are motivated in avenging perceived slights and shames inflicted on them throughout their history. They have nursed grievances over long periods of time, attaching much significance to dates. Our intelligence services would do well to study the history of these dates in assessing threats.
The commentary in part makes this observation:
“The fifth anniversary of September 11th 2001 is upon us. It is fitting that the day should see both a solemn remembrance of the dead and the renewal of a cold-hearted resolve to win the war that was declared on us.
“There is however, another September 11th that we should also remember, and from which we can take heart in our own struggle. It is September 11th 1565; the scene was different and so were the actors too, but the nature of the battle was all too familiar. On that day, a small force of European knights and the entire population of Malta dealt Ottoman Turkey a decisive defeat, and in doing so probably saved western civilization….”

Somehow, it seems appropriate that this story is coming out now:
“I am sure someone was being beaten, they were screaming like they were being hit,” the witness reported. “I felt scared, I was asking what was happening in the terrorist section. I heard shouting, like someone had a hot iron on their body, screams. The officer said they were just screaming by themselves. I was hearing the screams throughout the visit.”
The witness said that even in the thieves’ section prisoners were being treated badly. “Someone was shouting ‘Please help us, we want the human rights officers, we want the Americans to come back’,” he said.

Comment by RedPepper — September 10, 2006 @ 4:42 pm
One of the commenters (OBHl) at Dr.Sanity responds to a claim by another that Clinton’s non-response to capturing Bin Laden is an “Internet myth”:
First claimant: “Today on CNN’s Situation Room, Richard Miniter — conservative author of “Losing bin Laden: How Bill Clinton’s Failures Unleashed Global Terror” — confirmed that scenes in ABC’s Path to 9/11 are based on ‘Internet myth.’”
OBH Response: “Did you actually bother to read the comments? One person, right at the top, (#3) disputes Mintner’s claim in a very easily fact-checked way:
“I don’t know exactly what happened, but it is not “Internet Rumor.” It is as written by Buzz Patterson, Senior Military Aide to Clinton who was with Clinton at the time Berger was trying to making the decision. In fact Berger was calling Clinton, and couldn’t get in touch with him. Clinton apparently refused to take the call, because he was in the middle of an important round of golf.
“Now is he telling the truth, I don’t know, but that is a source pretty darned close to the situation. It is not ‘Internet Rumor.’”
Even more telling though is some background on Patterson, which comes at a later OBH comment:
“Col. Patterson was the Air Force attache who was in charge of carrying the “football” as the briefcase is known. It is the case that allows the president to use the nuclear codes. In his book, Derliction of Duty, he (Patterson) talks how he was at a golf tournament with Clinton when Berger called him on his phone. Berger advised Patterson to tell the President that systems were a go. They had located Bin Laden and the planes were sitting on the tarmac, engines running, to make the strike. The window of opportunity was only 20 minutes. Clinton refused to take Berger’s call. Again, Berger calls back and keeps calling back, to no avail. Clinton does not return Berger’s call until after the tournament is over and they are in the the car. The window of opportunity was over and the mission was scrapped.
“Sounds to me that the fault in question isn’t Berger’s but Clinton’s,” OBH concludes.

The scene where they were burning Clinton’s effigy, shooting the screen on which he was projected while speaking, burning the American flag and screaming, “Clinton is Satan” - correct me if I am wrong - but this had to have been a mistake, because that has only happened while the Bush administration has been in office.

c-a-t, My favorite part so far: John O’Neil (Harvey Keitel) watching Slick Willie on tv saying those infamous words, “Let me repeat: I did NOT have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinski.” Harvey’s comment:
“Pathetic.”
‘Bout sums up his whole presidency, IMNSHO!
Sad morning, all.

The left-wing hatefest continues. Even as they protest the ABC docudrama “The Path to 9/11″, left-wing moonbats applauded the opening of “Death of the President” in Toronto.
Here’s opinionjournal.com’s take on this “docudrama” which perversely glorifies the assassination of President Bush:
“The Death of the President” premiered at the Toronto Film Festival last week. Noah Cowan, one of the festival’s co-directors, called it “a classic cautionary tale.” He said the film’s real message is “how the Patriot Act, especially, and how Bush’s divisive partisanship and race-baiting has forever altered America.”
Mr. Cowan is kidding himself. Surely the film’s makers and promoters know the film will be viewed around the world by many people who will have a more visceral reaction to it. “This is Bush-hatred as a snuff film,” says Jeff Jacoby, a columnist for the Boston Globe. “The fantasies it feeds are grotesque and obscene; to pander to such fantasies is to rip at boundary-markers that are indispensable to civilized society.”
Thank you libs for demonstrating to the rest of the sane people around the world what ugly, maggot-infested haters you people really are. Already there have been any number of left-wing kooks publicly spewing their venom about the need to “target Bush”. Even your loonie tune icon Cindy Sheehan has claimed she dreams about murdering George W. Bush as a baby. What a sicko.
So keep it up until election time, the American people deserve to see what kind of hateful, venomous, lying pieces of humanity you really when the going gets tough. As to the issue of “divisiveness”, I think honest historians will record that it was partisan Democrats and the wingnuts on the left who decided to go down that road of partisanship shortly after 9/11. Before the dust even settled at the site of the fallen twin towers, you leftists were already blaming Bush and blaming America instead of entirely blaming the real culprits, the Islamofascists themselves who committed this atrocity against innocent humanity.
I hope guilt and remorse will follow you the rest of your pathetic lives every year that 9/11 is remembered in light of how you have betrayed your fellow countrymen and the cause of liberty itself by refusing to recognize the real enemy against whom we struggle - the Muslim jihadists.

What do you mean the terrorist were present in Iraq while Saddam was in power, but no ties were linked? In a police state such as Saddam was running no one stayed in Iraq without Saddam knowing about it…..to say there were no links is bull stuff
