To date there hea been not one scintilla of evidence found indicating that Saddam wanted to take part in any attack on the United States or U.S. interests.
This is not the argument I'm trying to make. There are at least two arguments on the table: 1) whether Saddam directly or indirectly aided and abetted al Qaeda regarding 9-11, and 2) whether Saddam was actively involved with terrorist groups, including al Qaeda, in order to further his own interests, and potentially threaten the U.S. The argument I'm making is a very narrow argument, restricted to argument #2.
