More Iraq-Terrorism Evidence

The evidence that Saddam Hussein and the Iraqi Intelligence Community had operational ties to terrorism continues mounting. Ms. Underestimated has video from an ABC report on this very thing. Here's the text of the ABC News report:
ABC News (January 14, 1999) - “Saddam Hussein has a long history of harboring terrorists. Carlos the Jackal, Abu Nidal, Abu Abbas, the most notorious terrorists of their era, all found shelter and support at one time in Baghdad. Intelligence sources say bin Laden’s long relationship with the Iraqis began as he helped Sudan’s fundamentalist government in their efforts to acquire weapons of mass destruction.”
“ABC News has learned that in December [1998], an Iraqi intelligence chief, named Farouk Hijazi, now Iraq’s ambassador to Turkey, made a secret trip to Afghanistan to meet with bin Laden. Three intelligence agencies tell ABC News they cannot be certain what was discussed, but almost certainly, they say, bin Laden has been told he would be welcome in Baghdad.”
We can look back and remember that Mohammed Atta, the lead 9/11 hijacker, trained in Baghdad with direct oversight from Iraqi Intelligence forces. The justification for war continues stacking.
