Of course theres a "link". A lot of countries in the Middle East were linked to 911 and other attacks. I don't see any troops in Egypt, or Saudi Arabia though. Besides, I thought we were at war to "Liberate the Iraqi people", no wait, "Rid the world of Saddam's Weapons of Mass Destruction" ehhh...."hunt for bin laden"??....nope, "Protect Americans against Pennicillan bombs"? nope, what was the reason again??

>Kurdish and Turkish intelligence officials said many of Ansar's 700 >members have slipped out of Iraq and into Iran.

Cool, looks Like Iran's people will be "liberated" next.
