Iraq - Bush, Saddam and 9/11

President Bush has never said that Saddam was behind 9/11. Further, Bush has never said that Saddam supported the terrorists who carried out the attacks on 9/11. That doesn't stop MSM from trying to put words into the Presidents mouth or fabricating a video that purports to show Bush saying Saddam was behind 9/11.

Bush has said that Saddam supported terrorists including al Qaeda. That has proven to be the case.

Kieth Olbermann of MSNBC selectively edited some videos to try and make it look like Bush said Saddam was behind 9/11. If you listen carefully, or read the transcript from Bush's 2003 State of the Union address, it's clear Bush was warning that another 9/11 could be far worse if the terrorists obtained WMD from Saddam. Here's the relevant part:

"And this Congress and the American people must recognize another threat. Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications and statements by people now in custody reveal that Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of Al Qaida. Secretly, and without fingerprints, he could provide one of his hidden weapons to terrorists, or help them develop their own.

Before September the 11th, many in the world believed that Saddam Hussein could be contained. But chemical agents, lethal viruses and shadowy terrorist networks are not easily contained.

Imagine those 19 hijackers with other weapons and other plans, this time armed by Saddam Hussein. It would take one vial, one canister, one crate slipped into this country to bring a day of horror like none we have ever known."

It's perfectly clear that Bush was not linking Saddam to 9/11. Bush was warning that the next 9/11 terrorists might be armed with Saddam's WMD.

I used Olbermann's own video to prove how he was fabricating the news. This was my first try at this, so apologies for the quality.

Also on Olbermann's video you'll hear a reporter try and set Bush up with some bogus allegations. In one question the reporter says that Bush said Iraq had bought Uranium from Niger; referring the 16 words the left claim Bush lied about. Two independant investigations found that Bush did not lie.

Here are those 16 words.

“The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa .”

It was Wilson not Bush who lied.

Now listen to this ABC news recording from 1999. As you listen, remember, the White House and Government officials mentioned were the Clinton White House and Democrats.

Quite and eye opener, huh? Now that Bush is in the White House, MSM and the Democrats have done a 180 degrees and they deny Saddam and bin Laden worked together or that Saddam harbored terrorists. But as you just heard from ABC News, they sang a different tune when Clinton was in charge.

That's the left wing media for you.
