Most of us are dependent on the news media for our information re political matters or international affairs. Many of us know the MSM is agenda driven and great purveyors of propaganda, which is never questioned by a nation of generally, gullible people. If there is a link between 9-11 and Iraq, I do not know. Based on common sense and the hundreds of news articles I have read about both incidents, I have found no link. If I were to guesstimate a link, it would be between 9-11 and Saudi Arabia.

Ah,Beautiful Jessica, so nice to talk to you again. There is a link,but not where you think(wow a poet and I don't even know it).The link is called PNAC. This is my theory,from my gut,(wink,wink, nod,nod),here goes.
How could Bushco move into IRAC,without a strong mandate? Only a little over 20% of the country even voted for him so, ANYTHING he wanted to do was going to be a tough sell to the American people ,much less a war with no end! To do this, something had to happen to unite the people for at least a little while,and seems to me 9-11 was just the ticket!
Just watching him sit in a class full of kids and read a story about a goat,while the country is under attack, is enough proof for me, to say it was an inside job! If he really didn't have prior knowledge, then he should have excused himself from the classroom,for the kids sake if nothing else! Hell, the freakin' Secret Service should have knocked him down and blooded his nose If he didn't want to go,THAT"S THEIR JOB! And the sorry a&&ed MSM,didn't even pick up on it? That's because they are in it too! I am not a crazy conspiresy nut, I am just paying attention! Jessica, I know you are sharp enough to see this too! Well, Whitey is getting all freaked out again,thinking that "they" are coming to "get" us( I wish he would take his Gestapo fearing a&& home,and give me some time with thew wifey),so I will stop ranting for now.The day I really fear though is the day we can't voice our opinions at all,that day I fear is rapidly approaching!

No matter what all the sheep say, I have seen a video that explains how our government set it up and how they covered it up too. So yes, I would say there is a link. Think about this though, they have satellites that can pick a quarter off the ground at 115 miles up in space yet they cannot find a 6 foot 5 inch bearded guy carrying a suitcase dialysis machine in a silver case. Why, because he was in a U.S. military hospital in Pakistan at the time before 9/11 and two days afterwards too. In my opinion, conspiracy theories aside, I don't see bin Laden being the culprit, but the scapegoat for a Presidential conspiracy that got all of America behind the invasion of Iraq. It is all about oil and always has been. Greed is the motivation and has controlled Congress and all politicians for over 70 years. But like I said before, this is just my opinion.

Because many people associate Al Queda with 911 correctly, but the debate over the justification for war has become so polluted that many people can no longer distiguish the basic facts. Since many people are not overly politically minded they generally accept what they hear as fact. Once a myth is started in our culture it is very hard to dispel. Lastly, polling data can be skewed in any direction by how you ask the question, and as a general rule it is no longer to be trusted from either side of the political spectrum. NoSunHere: Your statement better describes Dan Quayle than George Bush. Quayle spelled Potato "Potatoe" which made him the butt of many jokes for a long time following.

According to the Bush Administration, NO.
We won't mention that Saddam signed mutual assistance agreements with Al Qaeda after the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings in the East African capital cities of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya. Obviously, Saddam was very impressed, especially since Washington responded with such wimpishness.
Then again we'll gloss over terrorist training camps (duel use), and the precursor chemicals that terrorists nearly detonated in Aman, Jordan (they came from Iraq, but they were used for, well, dual use; or the fact that the long range missiles Saddam bought from North Korea got re-routed to Libya for safe keeping, along with Kadaffi's nuke goodies.
No link between Iraq and any bad guys, whosoever.

Most definitely:
Saudis, Yemenis, and Egyptians affiliated with Al-Qaeda attacked New York and DC on Sept 11,2001, and we invaded Iraq in retaliation.
(Makes perfect sense if you're in the PNAC)
