Have a good one!:s4:
Awsome, thanks for the link P4B! Do you have a whole archive of historical articles or something? If so that's awsome, I only wish I had such info at my fingertips (I go off memory most of the time, I have a pretty strong memory overal).

But hey this still helps my point that Russian intelligence certainly isn't more credible than American, especially when they've been proven to be feeding the US false information (not surprised). I don't blame America for going off an intelligence report that coincided with what their own boys were saying, I just think that's also a reason why I wouldn't believe Saddam was planning another 9/11 based on what Russian's say. In fact I believe that Russia has some very unscrupulous plans in the works to use the middle east to their benefit and remove America as a world power. Manipulating the US into a war with Iraq has been extremely beneficial to these plans as it's drained them of hundreds of billions of dollars, made the American public war-weary, tied them up in Iraq while real and dangerous enemy threats are emerging, and pissed off the whole Islamic world which in turn is helping the AlQaeda recuitment efforts. Invading Iraq is the best thing America could have done for terrorists.
