as an agent of Iran (Chalabi, Khodada, Qurairy, etc.), that the relevant documents are known forgeries (Atta in Prague), or that a quoted expert concludes the exact opposite of what the wikipedia editor added (Gunaratna). Those are just the examples that come to mind offhand. I feel like it's a big game to some people; they come across a right-wing blog and shout "ah-ha!" and add the information here as if it is conclusive proof that there was a conspiracy all this time, and then it is up to me to google or lexis/nexis for half an hour to track down the information that I remembered reading a year or two ago that clarifies the information (or, in many cases, disinformation) that had been inserted. In the end it does make the article more comprehensive, I suppose, but I would feel less annoyed by all this if people inserting such things would spend a little more time researching them more thoroughly before putting them in here. The fact is that there is a lot of disinformation out there, so some of this is inevitable, but if people are wary about the disinformation to begin with we might have less trouble. Remember, there might be a good reason that all intelligence agencies and all experts who have looked at this have concluded that there is no evidence of Saddam-alQaeda cooperation.--

on this, and if you read the Ottawa
Citizen article (rather than simply playing "gotcha"), you would come to the same conclusion yourself -- read the comments in his diary for example. (And, as has been typical, you don't even quote the part of the moonie paper that rebut the claim of this anyonymous official; did you stop reading after you found your money quote, or did you want to make me do it for you once again?) What's really ridiculous about this is we now have 617 words about Zubaydah in here - a man who (whether or not he was insane) told the CIA only that he knew of no Saddam/AQ cooperation, but that if there was some, he would not be privy to it. In sum, over 600 words about what the guy does not know. Oddly enough, you are now claiming that he was "a senior planner" inside al-Qaeda -- something Zubaydah denied in the passage that you quote from the Senate committee. So we have a lot of strange logical contortions here -- if the guy was the "senior planner," then he would have information about Saddam ties, which according to his knowledge did not exist. Again, all I'm asking is that you put a little more thinking and reading into your edits; I'm sure you mean well, and I am sure you think my edits are one-sided too.--

job was to document, digitize, and provide triage level analysis of captured audio and video from Iraq." As far as i know Mr. Robison was a supervisor, was never disciplined, and was awarded for his work. he also held the position for a year. if his area of expertise is only "aviation and missiles", then why did the ISG hire him. he must have impressed somebody in the intelligence community. as far as the "AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!" post on his blog, it's not there anymore. it may have been an attempt at a joke, but who cares. the fact that it's being used to try and discredit him shows how foolish all of this is. Robison didn't translate the documents himself. He supervised a team that translated them. fox news verified the translations and a former cia agent vouched for the analysis given. Mr. Robison was awarded for his service with the ISG and does have a distinguished military career. Unless you two have documented proof that
Robison is not competent, i think it's unwise to characterize him as a "kook" who was demoted by the ISG.

done when you are present. You keep baiting me, and distracting me from what I have told you several times is my sole objective on this article: to verify and upgrade the citing of the sources. Clearly you intend to continue to distract me, and clearly you intend to gut parts of this article, so there is no point in me putting in large amounts of tedious work here, if it isn't going to be any fun doing, and it's just is going to end up being removed. So knock yourelf out. I'm removing this from my watchlist, and maybe I'll come back some day when you are through, and continue my technical improvements. But for now, I'm tired of the frustration and waste of time that seems to follow you around. Don't direct any more comments to me, here or anywhere else, because I am just going to ignore you. -
326:, which would be more accurate, since this is all about the conspiracy theory and mostly consists of information debunking the generally bogus "links" that have been raised by conspiracy theorists. I'd say that too many notable people believe this conspiracy theory right now to simply remove reference to their various "points"; but I agree they should not be stated as fact. If all we have is Stephen Hayes alleging something, that should be clear. If all we have is info from the Feith report, that too should be clear, with reference (perhaps on a new separate page) to the fact that the Feith report was rejected by the pentagon and consisted of unanalyzed "intelligence" that was mostly rumor and speculation rather than actual fact.
1746:
question. But I think that's a red herring anyway -- Robison's qualifications are at issue here, and he doesn't speak Arabic, and in fact the translator (not "team") that he supervised is as much of a kook as he is, interpreting the document I linked above as serious proof of Saddam's collaboration with terrorists. And, of course, as both of us have agreed, the documents in question are not really that remarkable anyway - their translation is not at issue and they say nothing challenging the dominant view that there was no relationship between Saddam and al-Qaeda. It's truly amazing that anyone still believes that there was such a relationship, but I guess that is the longer-term effect of a sustained disinformation campaign.

reliable sources. Since, as you say, we have new additional reliable sources that discount all of those claims, one would think that the both of you would want that notable and historical information in the article together, to expose the BFEE/PNAC agenda of lies. It's curious that you just want it to go away. But knock yourselves out. I have taken on the task of verifying and formatting all of the sources (and learning the material better along the way), and as you can see by the edit history, I have a long way to go. I'm not going to allow myself to be distracted by you two any longer. I'll reserve judgement on whether or not all the claims were refuted until I've read all the sources. -

this article were actually not published by those who published them, the article cannot be a hoax, because it is indeed a timeline of sources that were actually published. The idea that there was a link can be suspected of being a hoax (I don't think it has been verifiably proven to be a hoax, so that is why I used "suspected"), but that is not what this article is about. It's basically a list of all relevant sources. I don't even think that, beyond the introduction, there should be much, if any, commentary or summarization going on. I would like to get on with the first step of verifying and formatting the sources without disruption. Would some of you like to assist me in a positive way?

only "left wing bloggers" believe the book is totally false; do a lexis nexis search or go to the library and look up articles in mainstream newspapers. Zubaydah was a "taxi driver" for al Qaeda, which makes it credible that he was able to identify KSM. He wasn't important; he drove important people around; and I never disputed that getting KSM was valuable. It really doesn't matter for the other reasons I mentioned above - I'm not trying to ridicule you; just point out that it is pointless to play "gotcha" with this information, since the
Zubaydah stuff in the article - now almost 800 words - adds precisely zero substantive information to it, since we are talking about what Zubaydah

Comparing
Robison to Cole is ridiculous; Cole has a PhD; he is a tenured full professor at a research university; he is the president of the professional association in his field, and he is widely respected by scholars and professionals as well as journalists. He also is fluent in Arabic and Persian. The fact that they both have blogs is irrelevant. (I'm also not sure Cole is used as a source here at all, certainly not as extensively as Mr. Robison). I agree that the Fox translations are not problematic and that they really don't call into question the overall conclusion that Saddam never worked with al Qaeda, so I'm not sure why this stuff is all that important anyway.
1648:
that those documents were reviewed by three editors and the translations were verified by fox news, and a former CIA agent acting as a consultant for fox news reviewed the documents and agreed with the analysis of them given by
Robison (i can't find a link to this segment but i do remember it clearly). so if a caveat must be added to the translations, it should be that only fox has translated the documents, and no other news agency has, meaning no comparison can be made in translations. but to date, i have seen no one dispute the translations. i'm not sure why Robison is considered a "hack" either. he has a blog with some right wing links on it, but

al-Qaeda presence in Iraq that was used to justify the invasion -- that is something that used to be made clear on the original page, before splitting off the timeline, but I think it is confused now. This is a confusion promoted by right-wing blogs, as a simple google search for
Hudayfa Azzam will show -- numerous right-wing blogs claim this constitutes a link between Saddam and AQ justifying the invasion, yet all this tells us about are things that were caused by the invasion (or the knowledge that an invasion was forthcoming). It's an obviously circular argument, and I think something should be done here to clear up the confusion. Any suggestions?--

speech to the UN. There are other hoaxes, such as the forged document connecting
Mohamed Atta to Iraqi intelligence, the interviews with the rapist/murderer Mohamed Mansour Shahab, the comments of the phony Iraqi general al-Ghurairy, etc. There is strong evidence that the entire set of allegations that came out of the INC are part of an elaborate hoax (and, again, this information is now thoroughly discredited). But you are right - that's not the proper use of the "hoax" tag in this context. It is necessary, however, for this article to include the information when it is known that a particular statement or article was a hoax.
1152:
al-Qaida is impelled by mutual antipathy toward the United States and the Saudi royal family and by bin Ladin's interest in unconventional weapons and relocation sites. The relationship between Iraq and al-Qaida appears to more closely resemble that of two independent actors trying to exploit each other - their mutual suspicion suborned by al-Qaida's interest in Iraqi assistance, and
Baghdad's interest in al-Qaida's anti-U.S. attacks. The Intelligence Community has no credible information that Baghdad had foreknowledge of the 11 September attacks or any other al-Qaida strike, but continues to pursue all leads.

part of a team to triage, gist, digitize and upload material into a government database. Basically, captured material was taken out of storage and allotted to skilled transcribers.

Robison clearly had no business interjecting himself during this particular process either, as he revealed in a letter to the

winnow down the references and statements at least a little bit. Once each cite is verified and formatted, then another pass through for "debunking". This process is a bit more research-intensive. I suggest that something that is "debunked" remain in the article, and be identified as such, with a second reference to the reliable debunking source. This will prevent editors in the future from reinserting bad info that has already been debunked. Sound reasonable?

will have to re-research the information showing it is not true. That is a lot of extra work -- I don't like the fact that all these false charges were made either, but at least the article as it currently stands allows us to look up a false charge and immediately see the information refuting it. I'd hate to have to do that research again in 6 months when some Laurie Mylroie fanatic comes by to re-add all the bogus claims.

nice if people could follow the same convention. I don't think we'll run into different refs having the same refname that way, but if we do, we can add an a or b to the end of the refname.

376:
we should not delete this information. Best thing to do would be to quote the 2006 SSCI report on the issue, methinks. Again, I think it's better to have such things in the article along with the evidence refuting it than it is to take it out and wait until someone else puts it in a few months from now and then have to re-research the evidence refuting it.
