From InstaPundit, sage of Knoxville, comes an article from a judge for whom he used to clerk. The fellow, a lifelong Democrat, was in Iraq with ORHA, and has uncovered documented evidence that Saddam assigned a Mukhabarat agent to work with Osama bin Laden:
The document shows that an Iraqi intelligence officer, Abid Al-Karim Muhamed Aswod, assigned to the Iraq embassy in Pakistan, is ''responsible for the coordination of activities with the Osama bin Laden group.''No word on the date of this yet. We know that Saddam had approached al Qaeda in the early 1990s, but many reports suggest that they fell out quickly. Everything changes if this is a more recent, and ongoing, relationship. Or rather, everything changes for us who live in the open sources: it looks as if Bush, who has been saying this all along, is borne out again. See Thursday's post on that subject.
