Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

And the Bush Administration DID say there was a connection. Look here: http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/06/18/cheney.iraq.al.qaeda/
"Vice President Dick Cheney said Thursday the evidence is "overwhelming" that al Qaeda had a relationship with Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq, and he said media reports suggesting that the 9/11 commission has reached a contradictory conclusion were 'irresponsible.' [Cheney said] the press, with all due respect, (is) often times lazy, often times simply reports what somebody else in the press said without doing their homework.'"
"Members of 9/11 commission found 'no credible evidence' that Iraq was involved in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks carried out by al Qaeda hijackers, and they concluded that there was 'no collaborative relationship' between Iraq and Osama bin Laden, the network's leader, according to details of its findings disclosed Wednesday at a public hearing."
"Both Cheney and President Bush are strongly disputing suggestions that the commission's conclusion that there were no Iraqi fingerprints on the 9/11 attacks contradicts statements they made in the run-up to the Iraq war about links between Iraq and al Qaeda."

Iraq has NOTHING to do with the attacks. But because they are a nut job country, we had to secure, guess what, their oil. Plus Bush could make his friends rich by awarding no-bid contracts. To the Bush Administration, this has nothing to do with keeping the country safe. If keeping the country safe was a priority to this administration, Katrina would have been a different story. Bin Laden was just a face to put on an evil deed probably which was probably conspired on by our own government to give them the excuse to go to Iraq and make themselves rich. Yep, it is that simple. Fight the terrorists there so we don't have to fight them here is just a bunch of crap since the terrorists are all over the mid-east, not just Iraq. And your question said it all, Saudi's were responsible....why are we in Iraq? We should be at war with the Saudi's. Did they all the sudden migrate to Iraq for some reason? The right wing conservative whackos are just plain stupid about this simple logic. They have no real good answer to this question except to criticize and call you a liberal or un-american to make themselves feel better.

And WMD and the training Bush Sr. gave to OBL in our own CIA and the billions of dollars stolen from the victims of 9-11 that was to go to the families Bush asked every school aged kid to send a dollar to 1600 Penn. Ave remember that joke! What is Bush boy about well---$$$$$ and he is following that root to all evil and we know where that root goes so don't worry about evil people God will get them and focus on what good our voices have if we just speak out for the better of humanity. Don't follow the losers way he'll lead you down the wrong road and to the pits of Hell!

Well, if we didn't attack Iraq you would be wondering why the administration is raiding the treasury to give tax breaks to the wealthy and writing legislation giving multi-billion dollar handouts to the credit card, oil, and health care industries.
Oh, and by the way.......fear!

Iraq wasn't attacked for over 18 months after 9/11. Iraq's former VP Taha Yassin Ramadan is a co-founder of al-queda. Al-queda is the terrorist group that attacked the US on 9/11.
In 1998, Qusay Hussein, Saddam's son gave monetary support to bin Laden to distract the US from Saddam's UN violations.
And in other news, the conflicts in which we are engaged are -NOT- called "War of Vengeance for 9/11." It is called the "War on Terror."
Added: Isn't it nice that less than 3 minutes after I post, I already have 3 thumbs down? I guess some people decide they don't want to know the connections.

They have spun this around so many times that I doubt even they know what their latest lie is. Bush said on television yesterday that Iraq was directly responsible for 9/11.. he actually did say it.
Today on some news show his minions were busy trying to spin it to try and ay what he really meant. Why is it we have a president that we need a decoder to understand.

Nothing, but if you repeat something enough the masses will start believing it.
Besides, it sure beats admitting you're destroying an entire country, as a smoke screen, to take their OIL........... especially when you've already shock and awed them to smithereens and you're still failing at it..

Very little. As many parts of the Bush regime have repeatedly confirmed in intelligence reports and other statements.
The only link is that Bush states there is a link. But every time he is asked to produce any proof, he asserts privilege and says that it would be harmful to the country to prove that fact.
It's like denying that something exists, and then having tons of classified evidence supporting the statement that you refuse to show anyone. It destroys any credibility in the statement.

Answer: NO!
It's not understanding that you lack, it history, facts, and data time lines that you contort to attempt to make your perverse distortion of history appear to be fact.
Indeed! You Don't Understand!
