Saddam Hussein requested a meeting with al-Zawahiri, Bin Laden's top deputy, according to a published report in the Iraqi newspaper Kurdistani Nwe.
.
The Kurdish daily Kurdistani Nwe has published a 2002 letter from the Iraqi presidency that it says proves that there was cooperation between the regime of Saddam Hussein and Al-Qaeda.
The letter, which appeared on the paper's front page, was published by the intelligence apparatus of the Iraqi presidency and discussed an intention to meet with Ayman Al-Zawahiri in order to examine a plan drawn up by the Iraqi presidency to carry out a "revenge operation" in Saudi Arabia.
I doubt Saddam wanted to compare recipes with al-Zawahiri.
.
Unlike the previous evidence which did not show communication between Saddam and his ol’ buddy Zawahiri after 9-11, this evidence clearly shows Saddam knew who to go to in al-Qaeda to execute attacks on American allies after 9-11. So much for the “Bush Lied” crap from the SurrenderMedia and Surrendercrats in Congress.
Don't look for McClatchy to report on this development unless they can find an anti-Bush angle in the story.
