Well, I think it is important that the video you linked is from 1992. And, Saddam did indeed have a history of harboring terrorists - but this was way before AQ. Abu Nidal for example, lived there until he committed suicide (ahem…).

It should also be pointed out that Bush Sr. bears a major portion of the blame for Saddam’s post-First Gulf War purge of those in Iraq’s borders who opposed his rule and had been sought to follow up on the encouragement given by the Bush White House to rise up against Saddam.

Thousand died because we told them that if they rose up, we’d be there to support them, when really nobody in the West had the stomach to support such an uprising. Those mass graves pictured above? Many of those were filled with men, women, and children who’d died hoping that the US would save them from Saddam.
