Not what the news people are saying...

A very dear friend has posted this about the Osama tape. In essence, the true translation of the tape completely refutes a link between Osama and Saddam.

Why Osama doesn't support Saddam

So - how may news channels are getting that wrong?

First thing that springs to mind: Disinformation.

Second thing: If dear old Osama can hold his nose and work with Iraq to oppose the war, what makes us think that he can't hold his nose and work with Iraq when they're offering to supply him with nice, juicy weapons.

It's not the proof of a connection it's been claimed to be, but it's a long way from a disproof also, I would say.
