14. Really? Not according to the BBC. The first time Bush admitted there was no

connection was Sept. 18, 2003.

US President George W Bush has explicitly stated for the first time that there is no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved in the 11 September attacks.

Bush maintains Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda are connected
Mr Bush has never directly accused the former Iraqi leader of having a hand in the attacks on New York and Washington, but he has repeatedly associated the two in keynote addresses delivered since 11 September. Senior members of his administration have similarly conflated the two.
