Iraqi insurgents cooperating with Palestinian terrorists
2004-10-03
Wordnetdaily (WND) reports today, in an article written by Aaron Klein, that the post-Saddam Baathist leadership, which is controlling the Sunni insurgency in central Iraq is maintaining the close links Saddam forged with Palestinian terrorist groups. These include continuing the funding to families of dead terrorists begun by Saddam. Intelligence officials believe that these may have extended to include operational coordination with the Damascus headquarters of various Palestinian terrorist movements, including Hamas. The existence and scope of these links recently came to light following the capture of an important document by US forces in Iraq. US military sources allowed WND to obtain the document.

#5  ... the Palestinian's are led by terrorists and have been for decades.

In polite society we refer to this as a BGO*.

#4  Unpossible! There is no link between the Iraqi insurgents and the terrorists. High Lord Kerry said so!

#3  Yes, but I can't help thinking about that handshake between Allawi and Shalom. Allawi looks like he has it in him to gradually start to establish relations with Israel.

Besides, I read somewhere that Saddam's invasion of Kuwait is going to feature at his trial. If this is indeed the case, then maybe it's not that far-fetched to see him hauled over the coals re terror against Israel.

We do live in interesting times.

#2  Well Bryan, Saddam is going to be tried by Iraqi's in an Iraqi court, I doubt anything to do with Israel will find it's way onto their list of priorities but then you never know.

Assuming this story is true it just serves to point out what I've felt for years, the Palestinian's are led by terrorists and have been for decades. Anyone who can't see that is either a joooooo hater or a freaking knucklehead!

#1  Will Saddam's support for Palestinian terror be one of the charges brought against him at his trial?

And if not, why not?
