Amy Proctor has footage of interrogations of al-Qaeda operatives by Iraqi police during 2005. The videos were aired on Iraqi TV in August 2005 but somehow were never viewed by American audiences.
Iraqi terrorist Ramzi Hashem Abed sang like a bird after being arrested for terrorist activity explaining his mission with al-Zarqawi, former head of al-Qaeda in Iraq, as part of Osama bin Laden’s terror network. He said that bin Laden’s al-Qaeda had been training in Fallujahâ .. UNDER SADDAM HUSSEIN’S REGIME. until they were chased out through Mosul by U.S. forces. He then described them as ’scattered’.
Ramzi Hashem Abed also described the brutality of al-Qaeda as Iraqi Police LT Muhammad reprimanded him for calling his acts of rape and murder Jihad.

A U.S. soldier has written a book about fighting these insurgents in Fallujah. It’s called “House to House”. The author is David Bellavia. Blackfive called him “badder than John frickin Wayne” Time Magazine featured an article about this guy. I hear this book is better than Blackhawk Down. It’s stuff you won’t see on the news. You should check it out.

Did any of you cowboys actually WATCH the video? Are you deliberately misrepresenting the facts?
Just because terrorists lived in Iraq when Saddam was in power does not mean he TRAINED them, unless you want to jump on-board with the Left wing nut jobs who say Bush and Cheney trained the 9/11 pilots, since they were trained when the Bush administration was in power. This is like one of those telephone games we played in elementary school, where the truth gets lost somewhere in translation. Please… let’s be honest with ourselves and each other.
