First the editorial, on the now-debunked but widely talked about news reports from several news outlets about pre-war Iraq intelligence reports that were supposedly ‘cooked up’ to fit the admin’s agenda of ‘forcing a link between Iraq and Al Qaeda’.
Even though Bush created him, and we know he was really only a figurehead, the Iraqi national security advisor is saying that the killing of Zarqawi and raid of his home have provided Iraq with a treasure trove of useful info against Al Qaeda and the ‘insurgency’. Via AP:
By now you’re all probably familiar with the video released by the US military that shows terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi fumbling with an American weapon known as a Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW). The guy looks like an incompetent fool – obviously, not a side he’d want those doing his bidding, as well as potential new terrorist recruits to see.
Jamie Glazov at FrontPage magazine has a must-read interview posted that he did with Thomas Joscelyn on some new revelations that are emerging from the recently released intelligence documents that were discovered in Iraq and Afghanistan. Joscelyn in the past has teamed up with the tenacious Stephen Hayes regarding the connections between Saddam and Osama. From the interview (emphasis added):
Newsweek has posted some select documents used by the Pentagon in a briefing on Iraq/AQ connections back in 2002. You must have Adobe Acrobat installed to view these.
Now just when will those who are supposedly ‘concerned’ about our national security (the Plamegate pushers) call for an investigation into this?
