Who do you believe?


iconTom Brokaw is still out spreading the lie that there is no link between Iraq and al-Qaeda. The 9/11 Commission did conclude that Iraq did not collaborate specifically with the 9/11 attack. But they also concluded that there was a relationship between Saddam's regime and terrorism.

That didn't stop Brokaw from making a complete ass of himself though. He "corrected" the Prime Minister of Iraq, who according to Tom, foolishly thinks there is some sort of connection between Iraq and al-Qaeda.

When Allawi expressed that view during the interview aired on Monday's NBC Nightly News, Brokaw scoffed and corrected him: "Prime Minister, I'm surprised that you would make the connection between 9/11 and the war in Iraq. The 9/11 Commission in America says there is no evidence of a 'collaborative relationship' between Saddam Hussein and those terrorists of al-Qaeda." But Allawi stood his ground: "I believe very strongly that Saddam had relations with al-Qaeda."

Brokaw also pressed Allawi to agree that "won't you always be seen, really, as an instrument of the U.S. military and therefore of America?" and proposed: "Can't you understand why many Americans feel that so many young men and women have died here for purposes other than protecting the United States?"

Prime Minister Alawi should have noted that Tom Brokaw will always be seen as an instrument of the Democrat Party. (Either that or kicked him in the nuts.)
