Old News That Seems To Be Forgotten...Or Denied
The clip is from an ABC report from October of last year. The same network had reported about the Saddam/bin Laden connection in Jan. 1999. I'm astonished they would even give it a first look, nevermind a follow-up. Not that this has anything to due with their ratings today, but it's reports of this nature that will keep them at #1 in the ratings ahead of Brian Williams and company as well as Katie "I love Jimmy Carter and I don't care who knows it" Couric.
ABC News (January 14, 1999) - “Saddam Hussein has a long history of harboring terrorists. Carlos the Jackal, Abu Nidal, Abu Abbas, the most notorious terrorists of their era, all found shelter and support at one time in Baghdad. Intelligence sources say bin Laden’s long relationship with the Iraqis began as he helped Sudan’s fundamentalist government in their efforts to acquire weapons of mass destruction.”
“ABC News has learned that in December [1998], an Iraqi intelligence chief, named Farouk Hijazi, now Iraq’s ambassador to Turkey, made a secret trip to Afghanistan to meet with bin Laden. Three intelligence agencies tell ABC News they cannot be certain what was discussed, but almost certainly, they say, bin Laden has been told he would be welcome in Baghdad.”
First, WMDs are found in Iraq (deny it all you want) now a bin Laden connection with Hussein, aka an Iraq-al Queda connection. The silence of the libs and the MSM is deafening.
Are appologies forthcoming? Nah.
