Iraq WAS tied to terrorism prewar

Maybe everyone forgot.... Zarqawi who is part of Osama's network... was involved with Iraq in the prewar times. The media keeps trying to deny it... but they can't do it without warping the truth.

According to AP reporter Patrick Quinn's account, then-Secretary of State Colin Powell's Feb. 5, 2003, presentation to the U.N. Security Council, in which he cited Zarqawi's presence in northern Iraq as proof of Saddam Hussein's links with al Qaeda, was "later debunked by U.S. intelligence officials." Mr. Quinn was wrong, as Mr. Powell's statement was actually confirmed by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee report. In his remarks before the Security Council, Mr. Powell, (who is not known for pro-war bombast) bluntly informed the council that there was a "sinister nexus between Iraq and the al Qaeda terrorist network, a nexus that combines classic terrorist organizations and modern methods of murder. Iraq today harbors a deadly terrorist network headed by Abu Musab al Zarqawi, an associate and collaborator of Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda lieutenants."

This is no different than Afghanistan. They both harbored terrorists.

They also both had terror camps where people were taught to hate america and how to harm it.
