More links to al-Qaeda found in a camp belonging to Ansar al-Islam militants. Here’s a thought: wouldn’t it be something if it turned out that Iraq doesn’t have chemical weapons but does have direct ties to 9/11? It’s extremely doubtful (I’m still convinced they have the weapons). But considering how everyone, including Tom Friedman, has poo-pooed the al-Quaeda/Iraq angle whenever the admistration has floated it, wouldn’t it be grand if the one silver-bullet justification even the anti-war people have conceded for all these months turned out to be true?
