[+/-] Rumsfeld admits no Iraq-Al Qaeda link
US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has cast doubt on whether there was ever a relationship between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda.
The alleged link was one of the justifications used by President Bush for the invasion of Iraq.
In front of an audience at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, Rumsfeld was asked about connections between Saddam and Osama Bin Laden. "To my knowledge, I have not seen any strong, hard evidence that links the two.... I have seen the answer to that question migrate in the intelligence community over a period of a year in the most amazing way."
Well duh.
