Saddam Ordered Suicide Attacks on U.S. Targets

A newly translated document from Saddam Hussein's intelligence files indicates that the Iraqi dictator ordered suicide attacks against U.S. targets six months before the 9/11 attacks.

Dated March 11, 2001, the Iraqi memo reads:

To all the Units

Subject: Volunteer for Suicide Mission

The top secret letter 2205 of the Military Branch of Al Qadisya on 4/3/2001 announced by the top secret letter 246 from the Command of the military sector of Zi Kar on 8/3/2001 announced to us by the top secret letter 154 from the Command of Ali Military Division on 10/3/2001 we ask to provide that Division with the names of those who desire to volunteer for Suicide Mission to liberate Palestine and to strike American Interests and according what is shown below to please review and inform us.
The document is signed by Air Brigadier General Abdel Magid Hammot Ali.

While the big media has so far ignored the find, Captain's Quarters blogger Ed Morrissey notes:

"If this translation stands up to further scrutiny, it will provide a substantial answer to the question of Saddam's role in terrorism, both in general and specifically aimed at America.

If this were printed in the NYT would you believe it?

If you ever pulled your head out, you would know there are some 48,000 boxes of captured audio tapes, video tapes and paper documents which have been or are in the process of being released. Most are not translated into english but the process of translation is beginning and some have been translated.

Of course, since the NY Times didn't print it, I'm sure you think the entire process is a hoax because you're one of those dwindling few who believe every word the Times prints. When the Times doesn't print, then for you, the story doesn't exist and it must be a hoax.

March 2001 Document: Saddam Regime Recruits Suicide Terrorists to Hit US Interests (Translation
Pentagon/FMSO Iraq Pre-War documents April 5 2006

Page 6 from document BIAP 2003-000654 is a Top Secret letter dated March/11/2001 six months prior to 9/11/2001, proves that not only Saddam Regime supported terrorists organization like Hamas and Al Qaeda as we have learned from other documents but also they were recruiting Suicide Terrorist Bombers to hit US interests. Saddam Regime was a TERRORIST REGIME and there was no other way but to destroy it after 9/11.

So now I'm supposed to believe that two Conservative sources got it right?

How about this statement about the document(s) in question:

quote:

---

The U.S. Government has made no determination regarding the authenticity of the documents, validity or factual accuracy of the information contained therein, or the quality of any translations, when available. http://www.dni.gov/release_letter_20060316.html

Legally they've covered their behinds ensuring that they could get away with putting out a false translation, or even a false document. I'm not saying conclusively that they did, but in the new world of American politics it's all about finding the legal loophole and getting the American people to buy the Administration's stance. They say Clinton was good, but this administration is the ultimate in misleading the public.

Aside from that there are a number of interesting things to look at here:

1. "In the Name of God the Merciful The Compassionate" Since when is Saddam a religious man? His regime is always typified as being 'secular,' even by Al Qaeda leaders.

2. "Saddam Regime supported terrorists organization like Hamas and Al Qaeda"

This is a direct contradiction to your stated viewpoint that there was no collaborative relationship between Saddam and Al Qaeda. Are you flipflopping?

Skipping to the end... still no interpretation.

So the question is: Where did the translation come from? Where can you find it outside of Conservative news?

I would have to assume that given the length of time since you last posted on this thread, and given the fact that you didn't post a single word that verifies the article you started out with, that you got nothin' and this was just a regular conservative propaganda piece.

Would you care to put in some diligence in proving the ridiculous assertion made by your article?

... I didn't think so.

That's what I thought. You really are pretty gullible.

I'd like to take this moment to remind you that it's absolutely impossible to win an argument if you can't provide any verification whatsoever to the validity of what your position is.
