I saw it coming but of course some people here called me crazy and made fun of me. When you are an Intel Analyst in the Military you come across all kinds of information that you think are completely out of this world - you obviously can't disclose it even though sometimes you wish you could. I am no Bradley Manning.
I just wish the government would actually tell us the truth about certain things but National Security is more important.
Over 4400 American troops lost their lives in Iraq in order to obtain a nickname of one man!
In addition, Bush does NOTHING to follow up on this name.
In fact, Bush dismantles the CIA operation responsible for finding Osama in 2006!
Yes, you read it right, the "linchpin" to Osama's demise was through a terrorist captured in Iraq.
Phone call by Kuwaiti courier led to bin Laden - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_bin_laden_hunt_for_bin_laden - broken link)
I really, really want to know how many anti-war Liberals will stand up and say "THANK YOU PRESIDENT BUSH!"
The answer, of course, will be none. And we all know its because hypocrisy and abject foolishness is the foundation of Liberal war policies.
So, i'll say it for you: Thank you President Bush for your anti-terror policies, your stance against Iraq, the capture of Hassan Ghul, and the ultimate killing of Osama Bin Laden.

But it also says this.
"Agency officials said that tracking Mr. bin Laden and his deputies remained a high priority, and that the decision to disband the unit was not a sign that the effort had slackened. Instead, the officials said, it reflects a belief that the agency can better deal with high-level threats by focusing on regional trends rather than on specific organizations or individuals.
"The efforts to find Osama bin Laden are as strong as ever," said Jennifer Millerwise Dyck, a C.I.A. spokeswoman. "This is an agile agency, and the decision was made to ensure greater reach and focus."

Would the link to the courier have been in Iraq in 2004 if we hadn't invaded and Hussein was still in power? The reason that Al Qaeda had a presence in Iraq was to kill US troops and destablize any US-allied government.
Did the Al Qaeda operative in question have a connection to Sadaam that went back to before the 2003 invasion?
are you TRYING to claim that the pre-9-11 training camps in Iraq were al qaeda training camps? that is a bit of a stretch and I don't think you can point to a page number that concluded that...
I didnt know that we were only concerned with the al Qaeda terrorists, and the other ones meant no harm to us
But page 66, "In mid-1998, the situtation reversed: it was iraq that reportedly took the initiative. In March 1998, after Bin Ladin's public fatwa against the United States, two al Qaeda members reportedly went to Iraq to meet with iraqi intellignece. In July, an Iraqi delegation traveled to Afghanistan to meet first with the Taliban and then with Bin Ladin"..
"Similar meetings between Iraq officials and Bin Ladin or his aids may have occured in 1999 during a period of some reported strains with the Taliban."
Page 61 clearly establishes the camps were in Iraq
"Bin Ladin apparently honored this pledge, at least for a time, although he continued to aid a group of Islamist estremists operating in part of Iraq (Kudistan) outside of Baghdad's control"..
I think I can speak for many on this forum by asking if you would stop crapping on threads with relentless personal attacks and argumentativeness.
This from the guy who said this
