Exclusive: Saddam Possessed WMD, Had Extensive Terror Ties

(CNSNews.com) - Iraqi intelligence documents, confiscated by U.S. forces and obtained by CNSNews.com, show numerous efforts by Saddam Hussein's regime to work with some of the world's most notorious terror organizations, including al Qaeda, to target Americans. They demonstrate that Saddam's government possessed mustard gas and anthrax, both considered weapons of mass destruction, in the summer of 2000, during the period in which United Nations weapons inspectors were not present in Iraq. And the papers show that Iraq trained dozens of terrorists inside its borders.

One of the Iraqi memos contains an order from Saddam for his intelligence service to support terrorist attacks against Americans in Somalia. The memo was written nine months before U.S. Army Rangers were ambushed in Mogadishu by forces loyal to a warlord with alleged ties to al Qaeda.

Other memos provide a list of terrorist groups with whom Iraq had relationships and considered available for terror operations against the United States.

Among the organizations mentioned are those affiliated with Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and Ayman al-Zawahiri, two of the world's most wanted terrorists. Zarqawi is believed responsible for the kidnapping and beheading of several American civilians in Iraq and claimed responsibility for a series of deadly bombings in Iraq Sept. 30. Al-Zawahiri is the top lieutenant of al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden, allegedly helped plan the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist strikes on the U.S., and is believed to be the voice on an audio tape broadcast by Al-Jazeera television Oct. 1, calling for attacks on U.S. and British interests everywhere.

The source of the documents

A senior government official who is not a political appointee provided CNSNews.com with copies of the 42 pages of Iraqi Intelligence Service documents. The originals, some of which were hand-written and others typed, are in Arabic. CNSNews.com had the papers translated into English by two individuals separately and independent of each other.

There are no hand-writing samples to which the documents can be compared for forensic analysis and authentication. However, three other experts - a former weapons inspector with the United Nations Special Commission (UNSCOM), a retired CIA counter-terrorism official with vast experience dealing with Iraq, and a former advisor to then-presidential candidate Bill Clinton on Iraq - were asked to analyze the documents. All said they comport with the format, style and content of other Iraqi documents from that era known to be genuine.

Laurie Mylroie, who authored the book, "Study of Revenge: Saddam Hussein's Unfinished War against America," and advised Clinton on Iraq during the 1992 presidential campaign, told CNSNews.com that the papers represent "the most complete set of documents relating Iraq to terrorism, including Islamic terrorism" against the U.S.

Mylroie has long maintained that Iraq was a state sponsor of terrorism against the United States. The documents obtained by CNSNews.com , she said, include "correspondence back and forth between Saddam's office and Iraqi Mukhabarat (intelligence agency). They make sense. This is what one would think Saddam was doing at the time."

Bruce Tefft, a retired CIA official who specialized in counter-terrorism and had extensive experience dealing with Iraq, said that "based on available, unclassified and open source information, the details in these documents are accurate ..."

The former UNSCOM inspector zeroed in on the signatures on the documents and "the names of some of the people who sign off on these things.

"This is fairly typical of that time era. [The Iraqis] were meticulous record keepers," added the former U.N. official, who spoke with CNSNews.com on the condition of anonymity.

The senior government official, who furnished the documents to CNSNews.com, said the papers answer "whether or not Iraq was a state sponsor of Islamic terrorism against the United States. It also answers whether or not Iraq had an ongoing biological warfare project continuing through the period when the UNSCOM inspections ended."

Presidential campaign focused on Iraq

The presidential campaign is currently dominated by debate over whether Saddam procured weapons of mass destruction and/or whether his government sponsored terrorism aimed at Americans before the U.S. invaded Iraq last year. Democratic nominee Sen. John Kerry has repeatedly rejected that possibility and criticized President Bush for needlessly invading Iraq.

"[Bush's] two main rationales - weapons of mass destruction and the al Qaeda/September 11 (2001) connection - have been proved false ... by the president's own weapons inspectors ... and by the 9/11 Commission," Kerry told an audience at New York University on Sept. 20.

The Senate Intelligence Committee's probe of the 9/11 intelligence failures also could not produce any definitive links between Saddam's government and 9/11. And United Nations as well as U.S. weapons inspectors in Iraq have been unable to find the biological and chemical weapons Saddam was suspected of possessing.

But the documents obtained by CNSNews.com shed new light on the controversy.

They detail the Iraqi regime's purchase of five kilograms of mustard gas on Aug. 21, 2000 and three vials of malignant pustule, another term for anthrax, on Sept. 6, 2000. The purchase order for the mustard gas includes gas masks, filters and rubber gloves. The order for the anthrax includes sterilization and decontamination equipment. (See Saddam's Possession of Mustard Gas)

The documents show that Iraqi intelligence received the mustard gas and anthrax from "Saddam's company," which Tefft said was probably a reference to Saddam General Establishment, "a complex of factories involved with, amongst other things, precision optics, missile, and artillery fabrication."

"Sa'ad's general company" is listed on the Iraqi documents as the supplier of the sterilization and decontamination equipment that accompanied the anthrax vials. Tefft believes this is a reference to the Salah Al-Din State Establishment, also involved in missile construction. (See Saddam's Possession of Anthrax) http://www.cnsnews.com/specialreports/2004/anthrax.asp

The Jaber Ibn Hayan General Company is listed as the supplier of the safety equipment that accompanied the mustard gas order. Tefft described the company as "a 'turn-key' project built by Romania, designed to produce protective CW (conventional warfare) and BW (biological warfare) equipment (gas masks and protective clothing)."

"Iraq had an ongoing biological warfare project continuing through the period when the UNSCOM inspections ended," the senior government official and source of the documents said. "This should cause us to redouble our efforts to find the Iraqi weapons of mass destruction programs."

'Hunt the Americans'

The first of the 42 pages of Iraqi documents is dated Jan. 18, 1993, approximately two years after American troops defeated Saddam's army in the first Persian Gulf War. The memo includes Saddam's directive that "the party should move to hunt the Americans who are on Arabian land, especially in Somalia, by using Arabian elements ..."

On Oct. 3, 1993, less than nine months after that Iraqi memo was written, American soldiers were ambushed in Mogadishu, Somalia by forces loyal to Somali warlord Mohammed Farah Aidid, an alleged associate of Osama bin Laden. Eighteen Americans were killed and 84 wounded during a 17-hour firefight that followed the ambush in which Aidid's followers used civilians as decoys. (See Saddam's Connections to al Qaeda)

An 11-page Iraqi memo, dated Jan. 25, 1993, lists Palestinian, Sudanese and Asian terrorist organizations and the relationships Iraq had with each of them. Of particular importance, Tefft said, are the relationships Iraq had already developed or was in the process of developing with groups and individuals affiliated with al Qaeda, such as Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and Ayman al-Zawahiri. The U.S. currently is offering rewards of up to $25 million for each man's capture.

The documents describe Al-Jehad wa'l Tajdeed as "a secret Palestinian organization" founded after the first Persian Gulf War that "believes in armed struggle against U.S. and western interests." The leaders of the group, according to the Iraqi memo, were stationed in Jordan in 1993, and when one of those leaders visited Iraq in November 1992, he "showed the readiness of his organization to execute operations against U.S. interests at any time." (See More Saddam Connections to al Qaeda)

Tefft believes the Tajdeed group likely included al-Zarqawi, whom Teft described as "our current terrorist nemesis" in Iraq, "a Palestinian on a Jordanian passport who was with al Qaeda and bin Laden in Afghanistan prior to this period (1993)."

Tajdeed, which means Islamic Renewal, currently "has a website that posts Zarqawi's speeches, messages, claims of assassinations and beheading videos," Tefft told CNSNews.com. "The apparent linkages are too close to be accidental" and might "be one of the first operational contacts between an al Qaeda group and Iraq," he added.

Tefft said the documents, all of which the Iraqi Intelligence Service labeled "Top secret, personal and urgent" show several links between Saddam's government and terror groups dedicated not only to targeting America but also U.S. allies like Egypt and Israel.

The same 11-page memo refers to the "re-opening of the relationship" with Al-Jehad al-Islamy, which is described as "the most violent in Egypt," responsible for the 1981 assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat. The documents go on to describe a Dec. 14, 1990 meeting between Iraqi intelligence officials and a representative of Al-Jehad al-Islamy, that ended in an agreement "to move against [the] Egyptian regime by doing martyr operations on conditions that we should secure the finance, training and equipments." (See More Saddam Connections to al Qaeda)

Al-Zawahiri was one of the leaders of Jehad al-Islamy, which is also known as the Egyptian Islamic Group, and participated in the assassination of Sadat, Tefft said. "Iraq's contact with the Egyptian Islamic Group is another operational contact between Iraq and al Qaeda," he added.

One of the Asian groups listed on the Iraqi intelligence memo is J.U.I., also known as the Islamic Clerks Society. The group is currently led by Mawlana Fadhel al-Rahman, whom Tefft said is "an al Qaeda member and co-signed Osama bin Laden's 1998 fatwa (religious ruling) to kill Americans." The Iraqi memo from 1993 states that J.U.I.'s secretary general "has a good relationship with our system since 1981 and he is ready for any mission." Tefft said the memo shows "another direct Iraq link to an al Qaeda group."

Iraq had also maintained a relationship with the Afghani Islamist party since 1989, according to the memo. The "relationship was improved and became directly between the leader, Hekmatyar and Iraq," it states, referring to Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, an Afghani warlord who fought against the Soviet Union and current al Qaeda ally, according to Tefft.

Last year, American authorities in Afghanistan ranked Hekmatyar third on their most wanted list, behind only bin Laden and former Taliban leader Mullah Omar. Hekmatyar represents "another Iraqi link to an al Qaeda group," Tefft said. (See More Saddam Connections to al Qaeda)

The Iraqi intelligence documents also refer to terrorist groups previously believed to have had links with Saddam Hussein. They include the Palestine Liberation Front, a group dedicated to attacking Israel, and according to the Iraqi memo, one with "an office in Baghdad."

The Abu Nidal group, suspected by the CIA of having acted as surrogates for Iraqi terrorist attacks, is also mentioned.

"The movement believes in political violence and assassinations," the 1993 Iraqi memo states in reference to the Abu Nidal organization. "We have relationships with them since 1973. Currently, they have a representative in the country. Monthly helps are given to them -- 20 thousand dinars - in addition to other supports," the memo explains. (See Saddam's Connections to Palestinian Terror Groups)

Iraq not only built and maintained relationships with terrorist groups, the documents show it appears to have trained terrorists as well. Ninety-two individuals from various Middle Eastern countries are listed on the papers.

Many are described as having "finished the course at M14," a reference to an Iraqi intelligence agency, and to having "participated in Umm El-Ma'arek," the Iraqi response to the U.S. invasion in 1991. The author of the list notes that approximately half of the individuals "all got trained inside the 'martyr act camp' that belonged to our directorate."

The former UNSCOM weapons inspector who was asked to analyze the documents believes it's clear that the Iraqis "were training people there in assassination and suicide bombing techniques ... including non-Iraqis."

Bush administration likely unaware of documents' existence

The senior government official and source of the Iraqi intelligence memos, explained that the reason the documents have not been made public before now is that the government has "thousands and thousands of documents waiting to be translated.

"It is unlikely they even know this exists," the source added.

The government official also explained that the motivation for leaking the documents, "is strictly national security and helping with the war on terrorism by focusing this country's attention on facts and away from political posturing.

"This is too important to let it get caught up in the political process," the source told CNSNews.com.

To protect against the Iraqi intelligence documents being altered or misrepresented elsewhere on the Internet, CNSNews.com has decided to publish only the first of the 42 pages in Arabic, along with the English translation. Portions of some of the other memos in translated form are also being published to accompany this report. Credentialed journalists and counter-terrorism experts seeking to view the 42 pages of Arabic documents or to challenge their authenticity may make arrangements to do so at CNSNews.com headquarters in Alexandria, Va.

No big problem at the galactic DNC mother ship at all. They will simply create a talking points memo, denounce CSN, call the author some really nasty names, call the docs fakery of the highest order, insult and harass people who have submitted opinions, threaten multiple lawsuits and do everything possible to censor or suppress any and all docs. It?s a cakewalk that they are well used to, and will be completed over coffee and morning under the table pinch and tickle games with the office guys or gals depending on orientation, of course.

I read today that the Kerry Campaign and the DNC have hired enough Lawyers for every county in Florida and every other State that they think will be close and that they have already initiated lawsuits in states that they "think" might be leaning Republican. It is pretty bad that at less then a month till election day Kerry is so worried about losing by a close margin he and his staff will rely on Lawsuits to win the election

[razar]

These documents you quote have already been proven to be fake by the DNC.The Arabic script has been traced to a former Army cook who was assigned to "7th SFG" smoke bomb hill in 1964.His name has been released.Further investigation shows after discharge in 1969 he relocated to cave #64890326417,where he furthered his education as it relates to Muslim fundamentalist idealogy.
The DNC investigators appointed by James Carville,also found out this guy was a 4th cousin removed 10 times of GW.
He was also elected as the head "raghead" of the" Royal Order of the Ali Babba Temple Knight of the Mystic Sea Lodge" which has it's headquarters in Hobart Okla.

This info came to me in a dream while under the influence of a 1/4 lb. doobey left over from a 39 yr old Cheech and Chong movie.

[razar]

Jerry D,

Looks like we will be hooking up with old Sterling Price and the Mo. boys on dec 4th for the Battle of Prairie Grove Ark.Hopefully those Bluebellies won't be wearing their Kevlar vest for this reenactment.LOL

You've GOT to be kidding..right??? :cd:


http://www.newsmax.com/archives/art.../4/141421.shtml ???

Newsmax????? Gimmie a freakin break! These folks are about as "credible" as that OTHER long ago right-wing propaganda "machine" set up by Joseph Goebbels & Henrich Himmler! Got some other "similarities" as well! :re:

[SuperScout]

Instead of answering the question, the typical whiny little liberal approach is to attack the messenger. If the information is correct, what difference does it make what the source is? This is so unlike the Democrat methodology of news, where the news is phony, and the source is questionable, but if the story even remotely sounds like it could damage GWB, everything must be true, pure and unquestionably accepted by the gullible folk. It is going to be so much fun to feed the little liberals their poached crow when the WMD's are turned over by the Syrians, who will want to avoid certain unpleasantries.

THE 180 BOMBSHELL
Behind The Lines
Dr. Jack Wheeler
Thursday, September 16, 2004



Comfortable? Have a bucket of buttered popcorn and a cold beer at the ready? (If you were my friend Otto, you'd have instead a Grey Goose martini.) All set for the greatest political fireworks show of your life? Showtime is about to begin.



Those SwiftVet ads, you see, have been just the pre-lims to warm the audience up. The main acts will be much more entertaining. They'll begin with signs appearing at Kerry campaign rallies saying:



Ho, ho, ho - Kerry must sign the One-Eight-Oh



What does that mean, you ask? It is the demand that Kerry sign a DoD (Defense Dept.) Form 180, which authorizes the release to the public of all military records the Pentagon possesses on him.



George Bush has released all of his, just like John McCain and Al Gore. Kerry refuses. He's hiding stuff in there that destroys him, is why. One such record has already been leaked: The official Navy "after-action report" that was the basis of Kerry's being awarded the Silver Star. This is the key quote:




PCF 94 [Kerry's Swift Boat] beached in center of ambush in front of small path when Viet Cong sprung up from bunker 10 feet from unit. Man ran with weapon towards hootch. Forward M-60 machine gunner wounded man in leg. Officer-in-charge, LTjg Kerry, jumped
ashore and gave pursuit while other
units saturated area with fire and beached placing assault parties ashore. Kerry chased VC inland behind hootch and shot him while he fled -- capturing one B-40 rocket launcher with round in chamber.




It is impossibly insulting to anyone in the milittary awarded a medal for bravery in battle that Kerry was given one of the highest honors the military can bestow - the Silver Star - for shooting a single wounded man while he was running away. How did Kerry engineer this? Only the
yet-unreleased records will tell.



Yet this is small potatoes to what's really in there. For starters, he has AWOL and performance problems that blow similar charges against Bush away. On February 18, 1966, Kerry signed Enlistment and Officer Candidate contracts for five years of active duty and reserves, plus one year of inactive standby reserves. On November 21, 1969, he wrote a letter requesting early release from active Navy duty, lying that "my current regular period of obligated service (will) be completed in December of this year." Obviously, the true completion date was February 17, 1971.



Nonetheless, after only three years and 18 days of active service, on January 3, 1970, Kerry was transferred to the Naval Reserve Manpower Center in Bainbridge, Maryland. Yet Kerry has refused to release his Performance Records showing that he completed the 48 drills and 17 days of active duty per year required during his 2? years in the Ready Reserves. For some reason, the Democrat Party propagandists posing as journalists in the mainstream media have never asked about them.



On July 1, 1972, Lt. John Kerry was transferred to Standby Inactive Status. Over 5? years later - and six years after his enlistment contract expired - Kerry was discharged from the U.S. Navy on February 16, 1978. It's not the phoniness of the medals and the after-action reports Kerry is hiding by refusing to sign Form 180. It's not even his Reserve Duty Performance Records showing he missed as many drills as he's missed votes in the Senate. What he is really scared of is the record of his spending six years fighting an OTH - Other Than Honorable - discharge.



There are five classes of Discharge: Honorable, General, Other Than Honorable, Bad Conduct, and Dishonorable. Kerry's public activities in leading the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW), including lying under oath, knowingly lying about alleged "atrocities" committed by his fellow soldiers, meeting with North Vietnamese government officials and Viet Cong leaders in Paris - all while still serving as an officer of the US Navy - were in direct violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), qualifying Kerry for a Dishonorable Discharge.



When Kerry appealed, he was offered an OTH - Other Than Honorable - as a compromise. He knew even that would destroy any possible political career, so he continued to stay in the Reserves with further appeals and
re-submissions for over five years, until finally, somehow and someway, he cajoled the military into making his discharge Honorable. Then and only then did he leave the Navy.



The full story of how he gamed the system is in those records he won't release. The legal activist group, Judicial Watch
<http://www.judicialwatch.org/> , has now filed a formal complaint <http://www.judicialwatch.org/archive...erryawards.htm> with the Pentagon demanding such release. But this is just the opening salvo.



The 14th Amendment to the Constitution has five sections. Here is Section Three:




No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.




As Kerry took an oath to support the Constitution as a military officer of the United States, and subsequently gave public and verifiable aid and comfort to an enemy engaged in warfare with the United States, he is Constitutionally disqualified to run for President (or be a Senator for that matter).



Judicial Watch is thus preparing to file a lawsuit in federal court charging that Kerry's candidacy for President is a violation of the 14th Amendment.



Note, however, that last sentence in Section Three: "But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability." It turns out there are many Republican Congressmen and Senators who are closet
Kerry-supporters - so much so that they will be offering H.R. and S. Resolutions exempting Kerry from his 14th Amendment disability. They will stand up on the House or Senate floor and give earnest speeches in support of the resolution. How they will keep a straight face, and suppress any sign whatever of malicious glee, I have no idea - but that's one of the skills any politician has.



So sit back and relax, folks. Have another beer (Otto - have another martini...). This is going to be as Ed Sullivan used to say, rrrreallybig, a rrrreallybig show.



(Oh - did I forget to say who leaked that after-action report from Kerry's Pentagon files, and who will be leaking the rest by, say October 15, if Judicial Watch can't pry them loose first? Here's a clue: he's two or three cutouts away from a certain senator from New York who dreams of once again residing in her husband's former home.)

Sorry,...Jim.
(Oct. 5, 2004)

But, it must be realized and you must have noticed that America over the years has been subverted and little by little brainwashed by Leftist Ruling Elite and greatly supportive Press, in that the carnival or Show-biz of politics are what matter most,...and even during the worst and most devastating wartime ever facing America. I know that's stupid. You know that's stupid. But, unfortunately, that's how things are.

All the truths and realities about power and control hungry ABOVE ALL ELSE Leftists you or any other Honest Americans expose,...are standardly and/or quite echoingly denied, diverted, ridiculed and/or just plain ignored as if blatant lies,...by "Their" overall supportive Press/Media or actual LIE VALIDATORS in reality, for such purposeful deceivers and/or pathological liars for political gain.

It's also unfortunate that many of The Thoroughly Brainwashed Duped Followers of such deceivers ACTUALLY BELIEVE The Press/Media, even when the political rhetoric is absurd, un-American and as irrationally nationally-suicidal as it gets. Many STILL actually believe that what's seen in print or on Nationwide Radio TV,...is ALL ACTUALLY TRUE and not just more, more, more, and more DNC BULL being echoingly propagandized (the norm). Truly sad for America.

I personally believe that had there also been a Liberal/Leftist Loving Press or TV (the current American norm) back in ancient Roman Times,...that "They" would've championed Old Nero to become the new Fire Marshal of Rome. Probably also simultaneously pushed for Nero to head-up the String Section of La Scala di Milano,...instead of and over the most qualified of fiddlers?

Don't believe I'm exaggerating anything, since neither Democrats nor Press/Media in general thought it even strange or weird that Kadafi was made The Top Dog in charge of Human Rights, for the similarly and always quite suspect of intent United Nations (about 50/50 America Despisers & America Friendlies).

Also, don't believe that I'm overstating anything either, since currently The Press in general apparently SEE NOTHING WRONG about historically and presently FONDA-like (most every way except sex) KERRY being even associated with The U.S. Military or Home Defense in any way,...much less become OUR new and Wartime Commander-In-Chief??? Is: "The Press in general" backing such nonsense NUTS!?!?!? Makes about as much sense as making Old Osama Baby Commander-In-Chief.

MORE AMERICAN BLOOD than should ever have been spent in Vietnam, was largely attributable to the likes of Jane Fonda and: "FONDA-like (most everyway except sex) KERRY". Wasn't that enough BLOOD sacrificed for KERRY's political climb?

The too, LYING BEFORE THE U.S. CONGRESS, LYING ABOUT COMRADES and/or EVERYONE ever Serving in Vietnam, and even causing many survivors of Vietnam to be SPAT-UPON,...doesn't seem like KERRY being Presidential Material to me. Far from it.

Regardless Jim. Sorry again. But, unless The Press/Media in general and/or America's MAIN INFORMERS (long ago called: "Guardians of The Public" - now mostly; Guardians of Our Hollywood or Show-Biz Political System) get their collective heads out of the sands, butts, bottles or whatever, We The People, The American Citizenry and/or The Political System Dictated,...are in deep do-do.

Sure, many foreigners worldwide and even foreigners here (legally or otherwise) will no doubt fair well if: "FONDA-like (most everyway except sex) KERRY" gets to: "Recapture The White House" for The Fonda/Clintons/Kennedy/Kerry Party and/or; "The Rich and Famous" clique. But,...SO WHAT???

Let "Their" nations take care of "Their" nationals INSTEAD,...for-a-change.
Let America get off of silly politics and back to that: "Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness" policy for Americans INSTEAD,...for-a-change.
Naturally, with an emphasis on that: "Life" part of the policy,...mostly for The American Citizenry.

Neil
