Iraq had no connection with Al Qaeda - US report Sep 08, 2006
Looks like the US is finally recognising what everyone else knew:

Rather embarrassing for Mr Bush who this week is still insisting that Iraq was linked to AlQaeda!

It said that Iraq and al-Qaeda were ideologically poles apart.

"Saddam Hussein was distrustful of al-Qaeda and viewed Islamic extremists as a threat to his regime, refusing all requests from al-Qaeda to provide material or operational support," it said.

The Senate report added that the Iraqi regime had repeatedly rejected al-Qaeda requests for meetings.

It also deals with the role played by inaccurate information supplied by Iraqi opposition groups in the run-up to the war.
