Saddam-Al Qaeda connected.

You could read the full article in the NY Post on line. The headline was about the possibility of a poison attack in London.
U.S. intelligence officials said last August that Ansar al Islam, a group with links to Saddam and al Qaeda, had conducted human experiments with ricin in northern Iraq.
The group allegedly injected the poison into the leg of a random passerby as he walked through a local market, then kept a watch on the man until he died 72 hours later.
In November 2001, a series of instructions on how to produce ricin was discovered in an abandoned al Qaeda house in Afghanistan.
Are all of the world's newspaper's lying. #1 I believe them. #2 Why should we live like this?

Not a good start…
Because one particular group or person has ‘links’ (whatever that might mean) with two separate factions, it doesn’t mean the two factions know or have relation with each other does it? Bush has ‘links’ with both Ariel Sharon and Arafat but I don’t think that makes the two allies or collaborators…
Which lead us to believe that Al Queida might be behind this- NOT Iraq.
I never said the newspapers were lying. They are simply reporting what US or Britain officials tell them. I am sure Al Queida has been experimenting with sarin. But none of the above information links it, in any conceivable way, with Iraq.
Naturally they will fabricate whatever links they can between the WoT and Saddam, since much of our public swallows this rubbish so easily and very few will endeavour to educate themselves as to the unbridgeable gap that exists between a regime like Saddam's and fanatical terrorist organisations. Never the twain shall meet regardless of what you are being fed.
Remember, the truth of things is often masked by political and economic expedience and big business interests.
Someone provided training and weapons to them both.
Can you guess who?
