Video shows Sammy forking cash over to terrorists
New footage has been released purporting to show Saddam Hussein paying large sums of money to a terrorist group. Liberal Democrat peer Baroness Nicholson says the footage is "incontrovertible proof" of the former Iraqi dictatorâs links to international terrorism. It appears to show the former Iraqi President plotting crimes and paying money to members of an international terrorist group. Baroness Nicholson says the group of men in the footage looked after Saddamâs chemical and biological warfare. The footage given to Sky News was reportedly looted from one of Saddamâs palaces. There has been no independent confirmation of the tapes and Sky News cannot verify their veracity. However, Baroness Nicholson says there is no doubt the footage highlights Saddamâs links to terrorism and chemical weapons. "This is incontrovertible proof of Saddam Husseinâs involvement in international terrorism," she said.
Itâll be interesting to see which group heâs handing out the cash to. PLF, Hamas, or MEK are definite possibilities, I suppose itâd be too much to hope for that the individuals in question are known al-Qaeda operatives. All the same ...
