Connect the Dots: Saddam ... al Qaeda

Over the weekend our pal Brainster posted a link to The Real Ugly American, who has done "a marvelous job of gathering together an impressive amount of data on the Saddam-Al Qaeda connection that the antiwar crowd constantly denies exists."

The Ugly starts his post with the following caveat:

Please also understand that nowhere do I claim that "ties between Iraq and Al Qaeda proves or even suggestions Iraq had any involvement in the attacks on our country on 9/11." I also find that point to be irrelevant to the basic disagreement between the hard core left and people like myself.

He then goes through an incredibly detailed, point-by-point list connecting the dots between al Qaeda and the deposed dictator Saddam Hussein.

This is indeed an impressive bit of research and reporting, and very definitely worth the read!
