Ansar al-Sunna claims attack on US base in Mosul

http://www.turkishpress.com/news.asp?ID=35162

DUBAI, Dec 21 (AFP) - The Al-Qaeda linked Army of Ansar al-Sunna group claimed responsibility for an attack against a US military base Tuesday in the Iraqi city of Mosul, which reportedly killed at least 22 people, in a statement attributed to it on an Islamist website.

Was this "Al-Qaeda" group involved in the 911 attacks?

3. Is it a Saudi Arabian group?

At least 14 of the 19 hijackers on 9-11 were Saudi Arabians. :eyes:

4. Ansar al Sunna was formed in 2003

According this history of the group, they first announced their existence on September 30, 2003.

They are just one of many militant groups who formed in Iraq since the US invasion. They obviously had nothing to do with 9/11.
