   Sad­dam Hus­sein should be returned to his elected posi­tion (hav­ing received 99% of the vote)as pres­i­dent of Iraq. After­all, bush­man did not even receive 50% of the Amer­i­can vote and elec­tion cheat­ing in Florida, Ohio and else­where, allowed him to be declared pres­i­dent after two sep­a­rate elec­tions. bush­man, the vice pres­i­dent and dumb­s­field should be con­victed of trea­son and exe­cuted and all of the min­ions should be thrown in prison where they belong.

    I’d have to see some addi­tional ver­i­fi­ca­tion before tak­ing this seriously.

    However.…if this proves true, if Sad­dam is restored to power, then nearly 3,000 Amer­i­can troops died for absolutely noth­ing. This would go beyond impeach­ment. Bush and senior mem­bers of his cab­i­net would have to be arrested and tried as war crim­i­nals. By us — not the U.N.

    The Amer­i­can excuses for the ille­gal war which has brought so much chaos to Iraq are dis­s­ap­pear­ing one by one. What is left now apart from “oil”?
    Sen­ate reports say Sad­dam rejected coop­er­at­ing with ter­ror­istshttp://www.realcities.com/mld/krwashington/15474492.htm

    By War­ren P. Stro­bel and Mar­garet Talev
    McClatchy Newspapers

    WASHINGTON — Iraqi leader Sad­dam Hus­sein rejected pleas for assis­tance from Osama bin Laden and tried to cap­ture ter­ror­ist Abu Musab al Zar­qawi when he was in Iraq, a Sen­ate Intel­li­gence Com­mit­tee report released Fri­day found, cast­ing fur­ther doubt on the Bush administration’s ratio­nale for invad­ing Iraq.

    Pres­i­dent Bush and other admin­is­tra­tion offi­cials repeat­edly cited Saddam’s alleged ties to rad­i­cal Islamic ter­ror­ists before the March 2003 inva­sion as one rea­son to take mil­i­tary action against Iraq.

    The 150-page report said the administration’s claims were untrue. “Post­war find­ings indi­cate that Sad­dam Hus­sein was dis­trust­ful of al-Qaida and viewed Islamic extrem­ists as a threat to his regime, refus­ing all requests from al-Qaida to pro­vide mate­r­ial or oper­a­tional sup­port,” the report said.

    The report was released along with a sec­ond one that said false infor­ma­tion from the exile group Iraqi National Con­gress, led by Ahmad Cha­l­abi, was widely dis­trib­uted in pre­war intel­li­gence reports and used to sup­port intel­li­gence assess­ments about Iraq’s weapons and links to ter­ror­ism. Intel­li­gence offi­cials repeat­edly warned that the INC was unre­li­able, but White House and Pen­ta­gon offi­cials ignored the warnings.

    The reports are part of a five-report study that the Sen­ate Intel­li­gence Com­mit­tee has under­taken into the Bush administration’s use of intel­li­gence before the inva­sion of Iraq.

    The study has left the com­mit­tee badly divided. Three reports remain clas­si­fied, includ­ing one com­par­ing pre­war state­ments by Bush admin­is­tra­tion offi­cials to intel­li­gence avail­able at the time. Democ­rats have accused Repub­li­cans of delay­ing the reports until after the Novem­ber con­gres­sional elections.

    On Fri­day, Democ­rats charged that the reports showed that the White House had manip­u­lated intel­li­gence to make the case for war to the Amer­i­can people.

    “The admin­is­tra­tion ignored warn­ings prior to the war about the verac­ity of the intel­li­gence it trum­peted pub­licly to sup­port its case that Iraq was an immi­nent threat to the secu­rity of the United States,” said panel Vice Chair­man Sen. Jay Rock­e­feller, D-W.Va.

    Repub­li­cans rejected that alle­ga­tion and said the reports added lit­tle to what was already known.

    “The long-known fact is that the pre­war intel­li­gence was wrong. That flawed intel­li­gence was used by pol­i­cy­mak­ers, both in the admin­is­tra­tion and in Con­gress, as one of numer­ous jus­ti­fi­ca­tions to go to war in Iraq,” said com­mit­tee chair­man Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan.

    In the run-up to the war, Bush and his advis­ers repeat­edly sought to link Sad­dam and al-Qaida, stop­ping just short of accus­ing the Iraqi leader of a role in the Sept. 11, 2001, ter­ror­ist attacks.

    “You can’t dis­tin­guish between al-Qaida and Sad­dam when you talk about the war on ter­ror,” Bush said on Sept. 25, 2002.

    On the same day, Con­doleezza Rice, then the White House national secu­rity adviser, said, “High-ranking detainees have said that Iraq pro­vided some train­ing to al-Qaida in chem­i­cal weapons development.”

    The detainee Rice referred to was al-Qaida oper­a­tive Ibn al Shaykh al Libi, who was cap­tured in Pak­istan in Novem­ber 2001 and, U.S. intel­li­gence offi­cials said, tor­tured by Egypt­ian author­i­ties after his trans­fer to that country.

    The Sen­ate report says that in Feb­ru­ary 2002, months before Rice spoke, the Defense Intel­li­gence Agency reported that al Libi “was likely inten­tion­ally mis­lead­ing his briefers.”

    Post­war infor­ma­tion on Saddam’s rela­tions with Islamic extrem­ists came from numer­ous sources, the report sug­gests, includ­ing seized doc­u­ments and inter­ro­ga­tions of Sad­dam him­self, for­mer Deputy Prime Min­is­ter Tariq Aziz and a senior Iraqi spy, Faruq Hijazi.

    The report, quot­ing from an FBI debrief­ing of Hijazi, said that when an Iraqi oper­a­tive met bin Laden in Sudan in 1995, bin Laden asked that Sad­dam allow him to open an office in Iraq, give him Chinese-made sea mines and mil­i­tary train­ing, and broad­cast his speeches.

    “Accord­ing to Hijazi, Sad­dam imme­di­ately refused,” the FBI debrief­ing said.

    Regard­ing Zar­qawi, the Sen­ate report cites infor­ma­tion that’s sur­faced since the war indi­cat­ing that Sad­dam “attempted, unsuc­cess­fully, to locate and cap­ture” him and the Iraqi regime “did not have a rela­tion­ship with, har­bor, or turn a blind eye toward Zarqawi.”

    Zar­qawi, who oper­ated from a part of north­ern Iraq that Sad­dam didn’t con­trol, was a key part of Bush’s case for war. After the inva­sion, he became the head of the group al Qaida in Iraq. U.S. bombs killed him in June.

    The sec­ond report released Fri­day con­firms that the INC had “an aggres­sive ‘pub­lic­ity cam­paign’ prior to the war to bring defec­tors to the atten­tion of ‘any­one who would listen.’”

    While many com­mit­tee Repub­li­cans dis­missed the INC report’s con­clu­sions as unsup­ported by the facts, two of them, Sens. Olympia Snowe of Maine and Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, voted for harsher lan­guage that Democ­rats proposed.

    The report, which ran 211 pages, dis­closed that three months after the White House approved con­tin­ued fund­ing for the INC’s intel­li­gence col­lec­tion in July 2002, the Defense Intel­li­gence Agency warned that the group “was pen­e­trated by hos­tile intel­li­gence ser­vices,” includ­ing Iran’s. It’s unclear whether top White House offi­cials were aware of the warning.

    The report also con­firms a report by McClatchy News­pa­pers that for­mer CIA direc­tor R. James Woolsey helped get an INC defec­tor atten­tion from the U.S. gov­ern­ment by refer­ring him to Deputy Assis­tant Sec­re­tary of Defense Lin­ton Wells.

    The defec­tor, Adnan Ihsan Saeed al Haideri, sug­gested that he had knowl­edge of dozens of sites related to weapons of mass destruc­tion, but none of them were ever found, and Haideri, taken to Iraq in early 2004, couldn’t iden­tify the facil­i­ties that he claimed he knew about.

    Sad­dam Hus­sein and U.S. Ambas­sador Glaspie
    Tran­script of Meet­ing Between Iraqi Pres­i­dent, Sad­dam Hus­sein and U.S. Ambas­sador to Iraq, April Glaspie. — July 25, 1990(Eight days before the August 2, 1990 Iraqi Inva­sion of Kuwait)
    July 25, 1990 — Pres­i­den­tial Palace — Baghdad

    U.S. Ambas­sador Glaspie —

    Ò I have direct instruc­tions from Pres­i­dent Bush to improve our rela­tions with Iraq. We have con­sid­er­able sym­pa­thy for your quest for higher oil prices, the imme­di­ate cause of your con­fronta­tion with Kuwait. (pause) As you know, I lived here for years and admire your extra­or­di­nary efforts to rebuild your coun­try. We know you need funds. We under­stand that, and our opin­ion is that you should have the oppor­tu­nity to rebuild your coun­try. (pause) We can see that you have deployed mas­sive num­bers of troops in the south. Nor­mally that would be none of our busi­ness, but when this hap­pens in the con­text of your threats against Kuwait, then it would be rea­son­able for us to be con­cerned. For this rea­son, I have received an instruc­tion to ask you, in the spirit of friend­ship — not con­fronta­tion — regard­ing your inten­tions: Why are your troops massed so very close to KuwaitÕs borders?

    Sad­dam Hussein: -

    As you know, for years now I have made every effort to reach a set­tle­ment on our dis­pute with Kuwait. There is to be a meet­ing in two days; I am pre­pared to give nego­ti­a­tions only this one more brief chance. (pause) When we (the Iraqis) meet (with the Kuwaitis) and we see there is hope, then noth­ing will hap­pen. But if we are unable to find a solu­tion, then it will be nat­ural that Iraq will not accept death.Ó

    U.S. Ambas­sador Glaspie —

    Ò What solu­tions would be acceptable?Ó

    Sad­dam Hussein -

    If we could keep the whole of the Shatt al Arab — our strate­gic goal in our war with Iran — we will make con­ces­sions (to the Kuwaitis). But, if we are forced to choose between keep­ing half of the Shatt and the whole of Iraq (i.e., in Sad­damÕs view, includ­ing Kuwait) then we will give up all of the Shatt to defend our claims on Kuwait to keep the whole of Iraq in the shape we wish it to be. (pause) What is the United StatesÕ opin­ion on this?Ó

    U.S. Ambas­sador Glaspie -

    “We have no opin­ion on your Arab — Arab con­flicts, such as your dis­pute with Kuwait. Sec­re­tary (of State James) Baker has directed me to empha­size the instruc­tion, first given to Iraq in the 1960’s, that the Kuwait issue is not asso­ci­ated with Amer­ica.” (Sad­dam smiles)
    On August 2, 1990 four days later, Sad­damÕs massed troops invade and occupy Kuwait.

    ——————————————————————————–

    Bagh­dad, Sep­tem­ber 2, 1990, U.S. Embassy

    One month later, British jour­nal­ist obtain the the above tape and tran­script of the Sad­dam — Glaspie meet­ing of July 29, 1990. Astounded, they con­front Ms. Glaspie as she leaves the U.S. Embassy in Bagh­dad.
    Jour­nal­ist 1 -

    ÒAre the tran­scripts (hold­ing them up) cor­rect, Madam Ambassador?

    (Ambas­sador Glaspie does not respond)

    Jour­nal­ist 2 -

    ÒYou knew Sad­dam was going to invade (Kuwait) but you did­nÕt warn him not to. You did­nÕt tell him Amer­ica would defend Kuwait. You told him the oppose — that Amer­ica was not asso­ci­ated with Kuwait.Ó
    Jour­nal­ist 1 -

    ÒYou encour­aged this aggres­sion — his inva­sion. What were you thinking?Ó

    U.S. Ambas­sador Glaspie -

    “Obvi­ously, I didn’t think, and nobody else did, that the Iraqis were going to take all of Kuwait.”

    Jour­nal­ist 1 -

    “You thought he was just going to take some of it? But, how could you? Sad­dam told you that, if nego­ti­a­tions failed, he would give up his Iran (Shatt al Arab water­way) goal for the “Whole of Iraq, in the shape we wish it to be.” You know that includes Kuwait, which the Iraqis have always viewed as an his­toric part of their country!Ó

    Jour­nal­ist 1 -

    “Amer­i­can green-lighted the inva­sion. At a min­i­mum, you admit sig­nal­ing Sad­dam that some aggres­sion was okay — that the U.S. would not oppose a grab of the al-Rumeilah oil field, the dis­puted bor­der strip and the Gulf Islands (includ­ing Bubiyan) — the ter­ri­to­ries claimed by Iraq?“
    (Ambas­sador Glaspie says noth­ing as a lim­ou­sine door closed behind her and the car dri­ves off.)

    However….if this proves true, if Sad­dam is restored to power, then nearly 3,000 Amer­i­can troops died for absolutely nothing.

    Well what do you think they died for, becuase Iraq/Saddam had links with ter­ror­ism or that they had WMD?

    This would go beyond impeach­ment. Bush and senior mem­bers of his cab­i­net would have to be arrested and tried as war crim­i­nals. By us — not the U.N.
    
    That would sim­ply be a white­wash, the Inter­na­tional Crim­i­nal Court and another Nurem­bourg tri­als is what’s needed.
