Al-Zarqawi, Bush protected him from Pentagon attacks
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the evil terrorist that Bush used to link Saddam to Al Qaeda and 9-11.
al-Zarqawi, whom Bush helped secure a foothold in Iraq in a policy that has backfired "big-time". The Bush policy in Iraq for two years following September the 11th was the opposite of fighting terrorism--it was to PROTECT terrorists and use them as political pawns to gain oil and power.

al-Zarqawi, whom the U.S. was secretly asking for help in Iraq just months after 9-11.

al-Zarqawi, who for two years was based in NE Iraq with Ansar Al Islam, his terrorirst organization.

al-Zarqawi, and “Al Ansar had ties to Al Qaeda, some members shared training camps in Afghanistan… he developed chemical and biological weapons which were unleashed on targets in Europe. The U.S. was fully aware of his presence and the base from the get go.”
