"The staff of the The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (also known as the 9-11 Commission) issued a statement June 16 saying it found "no credible evidence that Iraq and al Qaeda cooperated on attacks against the United States." It also said "contacts" between al Qaeda and Iraq "do not appear to have resulted in a collaborative relationship.""
How quickly people forget about the revelations from Richard Clarke. One being that the administration was focused on Iraq from day one, two being that after 9-11, the focus was immediately on Iraq despite Clarke insisting otherwise.
Fair enough. That said, I personally believe, and I'll just say personally, that Saddam was doing things to help the al-queef network. As you were.
It's fascinating that so many people still believe the "war on terrorism" is about eliminating terrorism.
Its fascinating to me that people like you think its about something else. And, apparently, you can't put an apostrophy in its. I learned the hard way.
http://www.stormloader.com/garyes/its/#top The It's vs. Its page If you're confused by these two little words, you've come to the right place. (Not that there aren't other right places.) It's is a contraction for it is or it has. Its is a possessive pronoun meaning, more or less, of it or belonging to it. And there is absolutely, positively, no such word as its'. A simple test If you can replace it[']s in your sentence with it is or it has, then your word is it's; otherwise, your word is its. Another test Its is the neuter version of his and her. Try plugging her into your sentence where you think its belongs. (It's better to use her for reasons I may explain someday.) If the sentence still works grammatically (if not logically) then your word is indeed its. Examples It's been good to know you. Contraction: it has It's a bird! It's a plane! Contraction: it is The dodo bird is known for its inability to fly. Possessive pronoun: its inability = the dodo bird's inability
Tell that to BJ. He showed me a website that showed that "it's" is not a word. Believe me, I was in the same group as you were. I still think it "should" be a word, but, as of the dictionary right now, it is not. Try doing a dictionary search on "it's". It will say do you mean its? It is a weird part of our vernacular, but that's the way it is, as of now. Or so I was told.... Where are you Batman?
from dictionary.com it's ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ts) 1. Contraction of it is. 2. Contraction of it has. See Usage Note at its. WTF u talking bout Fatty?
You know what...... Screw it. I'm back on board. I always that "it's" was a word, anyway. Unless Batman can come up with his "proof" again, I'll go back to standing behind it. (I'm such a flip-flopper.)
