It's a slam-dunk case!

We could never verify that there was any Iraqi authority, direction and control, complicity with al Qaeda for 9/11 or any operational act against America. Period.

Iraq... has also had contacts with al-Qaida. Their ties may be limited by divergent ideologies, but the two sides' mutual antipathy toward the United States and the Saudi royal family suggests that tactical cooperation between them is possible.

You deserve better from your entire government, all of us.

As a nation we have, over the past seven years, been rebuilding our intelligence with powerful capabilities that many thought we would no longer need after the Cold War. We have been rebuilding our clandestine service, our satellite and other technical collection, our analytical depth and expertise.

Foreign nations have begun to include information warfare in their war college curricula with respect to both defensive and offensive applications.

One mushroom cloud would change history. My deepest fear is that this is exactly what they [Al Qaeda] intend.
