U.S. Officials See Hussein's Hand In Attacks on Americans in Iraq
Article Abstract:
The DOD is examining intelligence reports that indicate Saddam Hussein may be near Tikrit where he is operating bomb attacks against US soldiers and others to undermine American coalition efforts in Iraq. Hussein is reportedly working with Gen. Izzat Ibrahim, the former second-in-command of the Iraqi government. The DOD has traced Ibrahim's contact with the militant group Ansar al-Islam, and suspects that Hussein may be taking a more active role in coordinating various forces that oppose the American-led invasion and occupation of Iraq.

Article Abstract:
A Defense Intelligence Agency report reveals that taxpayer funds authorized by the the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 paid for worthless information from the Iraqi National Congress about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction and other intelligence data. The arrangements for information from Iraqi defectors proved unworthy and of little value to US intelligence agencies. Ahmed Chalibi, head of the Iraqi National Congress, defends the intelligence sources provided by the Iraqi exiles.
