regime is in fact a terrorist..... therefore, everyone who once supported the old regime was a terrorist.... I hope Ronald Dumbsfeld can see this for what it is.
http://www.globalpolicy.org/security/issues/iraq/history/husseinindex.htmUS intelligence helped Saddam’s Ba`ath Party seize power for the first time in 1963. Evidence suggests that Saddam was on the CIA payroll as early as 1959, when he participated in a failed assassination attempt against Iraqi strongman Abd al-Karim Qassem. In the 1980s, the US and Britain backed Saddam in the war against Iran, giving Iraq arms, money, satellite intelligence, and even chemical & bio-weapon precursors. As many as 90 US military advisors supported Iraqi forces and helped pick targets for Iraqi air and missile attacks.
