File: Iraq, Al-Qaida Cooperated in 1990s – (United Press International)

The UPI wire last night: [1]:

“Baghdad, Iraq, Jun. 25 (UPI) — An apparently authentic document from Saddam Hussein’s regime confirms cooperation between Iraq and Osama bin Laden, the New York Times reported Friday.
The Iraqi document, obtained by the newspaper several weeks ago and described by U.S. officials as genuine, describes contacts between Iraqi intelligence agents and bin Laden’s al-Qaida when he was in Sudan in the mid-1990s.
Specifically, the documents describe Baghdad agreeing to an al-Qaida request to rebroadcast anti-Saudi sermons across Iraq.”

Funny how this isn’t getting any press… Even the Times buried the story.
Trust me; the press knows, as does the left, that this cooperation existed.
And the American people do, too. That understanding is cited as a big reason why the Democrats are losing bigtime, in the polling story, above.
