WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 — Saddam Hussein warned his Iraqi supporters to be wary of joining forces with foreign Arab fighters entering Iraq to battle American troops, according to a document found with the former Iraqi leader when he was captured, Bush administration officials said Tuesday.
The document appears to be a directive, written after he lost power, from Mr. Hussein to leaders of the Iraqi resistance, counseling caution against getting too close to Islamic jihadists and other foreign Arabs coming into occupied Iraq, according to American officials.
It provides a second piece of evidence challenging the Bush administration contention of close cooperation between Mr. Hussein's government and terrorists from Al Qaeda. C.I.A. interrogators have already elicited from the top Qaeda officials in custody that, before the American-led invasion, Osama bin Laden had rejected entreaties from some of his lieutenants to work jointly with Mr. Hussein.
....
But I'm sure there are still many more here that think he was in bed with Bin Laden.

You know, it might even work better than the current plan.

It's just like the tax cut. Give every Iraqi (or American) some money and they can go shopping. And the money goes into the pocket of the rich ( oh sorry, the economy.) |

But seriously, at least it would go to Iraqis, not Haliburton et al. |

It would go to Milo Minderbinder. He is the force behind Haliburton. Dick Cheney hired him when he left to become Veep. |
