right college boy and the holocoust never happened... those were people paid by the US to look like they were starving to death just so the US could justify entering the war....

The US didn't need the holocaust to justify its actions in WWII. The US did not go to war because of the holocaust.

But a piece of paper in the middle of no where, in a small village, come on.

i know the us didnt need the holocaust bassed on the fact we didn know about its true size till we where already on our way to berlin... but still there are people who say that...

Also I don't consider news form a Kurdish diplomat, or from Foxnews as sources.

Hey CB, I hear Al Jazeera is hiring...

So in your mind, Al Jazeera is on equal footing with Fox News?

But you just don't discredit an entire news source. You weigh all things. All news sources are bias, so it comes down to what can be believed and what can't be. What is less bias. Which story is more reputable? It is a case by case comparison.

Cphilip, did you even read through your article? this is the closet that article comes to saying Iraq and Ansar are linked:

"The cache of documents at the Ansar al-Islam compound, including computer discs and foreign passports belonging to Arab fighters from around the Middle East, could bolster the Bush administration's claims that the two groups are connected"

(note: keyword "claims", you know when fox news wont admit it as truth, its definitaly not the truth.)

now some other choice sentences:

"although there was no indication any of the evidence tied Ansar to Saddam Hussein as Washington has maintained. "

"The group's leader, Mullah Krekar, is being held in Norway on charges of kidnapping and aiding terrorists.

Krekar has denied any links to Saddam or Al Qaeda, but said he considers Usama bin Laden a "good Muslim.""

the word of a terrorist, not worth much i know, but it's better then nothing.


CB is right, i dont know any political debaters that consider fox news a worthy news source, except of course on this forum .

Bwahahahahaha! That was stuff were captured INSIDE IRAQ!!!! You are realy grasping now... You forget that was to counter CB's contention they were Al Queda connected but not Iraqis connected. Come on man...this was stuff captured IN IRAQ! give the militant spin a break dude. Its unraveled on you. THIS STUFF WAS IN IRAQ WHEN WE FOUND IT!!!!! LOL! your pathetic now... and your insistence is doomed to failure my friend. It's a "game set match" on the Al Ansar issue. The only thing remaining is any Al Queda link. Read it all if you intend to argue it...

There were indications, however, that the group has been getting help from inside neighboring Iran.

Kurdish and Turkish intelligence officials, some speaking on condition of anonymity, said many of Ansar's 700 members have slipped out of Iraq and into Iran -- putting them out of reach of coalition forces.

The officials also said a U.S. missile strike on Ansar's territory on the second day of the war missed most of its leadership -- which crossed into Iran days earlier.

U.S. officials said the government had reports some Ansar fighters could have made it into Iran and have been shuttling back and forth with fresh supplies.

According to a high-level Kurdish intelligence official, three Ansar leaders -- identified as Ayoub Afghani, Abdullah Shafeye and Abu Wahel -- were among those who had fled into Iran. The official said the three were seen being detained by Iranian authorities Sunday.

You only read the portions that help your position and argument don't you? How convenient! (Church lady voice)
