Note Browkaw's contempt of a Prime Minister of a foreign country. Instead of questioning Allawi, shouldn't Browkaw be questioning the commission?

C'mon, Mitch, everyone knows Allawi's not a real Prime Minister!

I think it's interesting that Brokaw keeps trying to talk about American imperialism and how there's no connection between Saddam and terrorists, and Allawi basically ignores him and discusses the actual issue of, you know, the war and stuff.

I am more than a little confused. I thought the 9/11 Commission found a definitive link between Hussein and al Qaida but not a link between the dictator and the specific attacks.

Did I hear that wrong?

If I am not mistaken, then is Brokaw's stance that we should sit back and only go after those who have already killed or attacked US persons?

Brokaw reminds me of Dan Rather's gushing interview style with Saddam in his heyday. Remember? These vain anchors are clueless about patriotic values, love of Country or sense of morality. This is why their TV networks are in decline. The vast majority of this Country knows who is Right & who is Wrong.
We remember New York in 9/11 and we will not forget.
