My RedState post on Saddam Hussein’s funding of terrorists.

Found here.  Short version: …you may have noticed that I have gotten EXTREMELY hard-nosed on the subject of the primary since Saturday. Sorry about that – but if candidates want me to calm down, don’t tell me that Saddam Hussein was fighting terrorists in the Middle East when in reality he was paying off the families of successful Palestinian suicide bombers with stolen oil-for-food money.  I’ve already had that fight, thanks.

  1. Oy.
    I swear I hammered this point nearly every day for seven years.
    Not to mention Iraq repeatedly shooting at our troops, attempting to assassinate a former president of ours, committing genocide against populations under our protection, failing to produce and destroy the chemical weapons they provided us an inventory of at the close of the gulf war, and imposing the weapons inspectors charged with monitoring the destruction of that inventory.
    Every one of which was a violation of the ceasefire and invoked a resumption of war.

  2. I blame George Bush . Seriously . When Bush and Rove decided to not respond to the antiwar Left after the 2006 elections they let this whole Bush lied / blood for oil thing get up and running and now it is the accepted ‘narrative ‘ . Bush should have used his bully pulpit to push back and push back hard but he didn’t . But hey it’s all about comity and stuff . Peace love and understanding , like in Syria now ..
