WASHINGTON, D.C. – I expect the left to tout this as “Fox News propaganda.” Last month their argument “there were no WMDs” seemed to hit a bump in the road with the declassification of DoD documents showing that WMDs were found, ones Saddam pledged he had destroyed.

Now, there seems to be a Saddam-Taliban connection. I will not go as far as to say that they were allies, but he certainly was not opposed to them. “Fox News and Robison last week revealed the contents of a 1999 notebook kept by an Iraqi Intelligence Service (IIS) operative. That notebook detailed how Saddam's agents aggressively pursued and entered into a diplomatic, intelligence, and security arrangement with the Taliban and Islamist extremists operating in Afghanistan — years before the 9/11 attacks.”
