General Clark on MTP (2003): "..concerted effort ..to pin 9/11... Saddam."
”There was a concerted effort during the fall of 2001, starting immediately after 9/11, to pin 9/11 and the terrorism problem on Saddam Hussein”.

”It came from the White House, it came from other people around the White House. It came from all over. I got a call on 9/11. I was on CNN, and I got a call at my home saying, 'You got to say this is connected. This is state-sponsored terrorism. This has to be connected to Saddam Hussein'.”

....

"and the truth shall set you free" Ray McGovern (6/17/2005 DSM Hearing)

when Rumsfeld was quoted by one of his aides:

"”best info fast” to ”judge whether good enough to hit SH (Saddam Hussein) at the same time, not only UBL (Usama bin Laden). The administration should ”go massive...sweep it all up, things related and not”"
