Shh-Iraq Frog-King Implicated in Iraqi Docs?

ABC News has several documents translated from among the cache of Iraqi Intelligence found after the liberation of Baghdad in 2003. Among the most intriguing is the following document:

"Election Campaign Laws in France"

Documents dated July-August 1999

Correspondence regarding election campaigns in France. This includes a document from the Iraqi intelligence service classified as "secret," ordering the translation of important parts of a 1997 report about campaign financing laws in France. It also includes a document from the foreign minister's office indicating the report was attached. The attached translated report included very detailed information about all the regulations regarding financing of election campaigns in France. Translation was done by someone called "Salam Abdul Karim Mohammed."

(Editor's Note: This is an intriguing document which suggests Saddam Hussein's regime had a strong interest in the mechanics and legalities of financial contributions to French politicians. Several former French politicians are implicated in receiving oil vouchers from Iraq under the U.N. Oil for Food program.) [my emphasis]
Jacques Chirac was a Minister in 1975 when they first made friends. According to Saddam in an interview in the Sun [more reputable than the NYT] in 2005:

Saddam boasted from jail: "Chirac has been a longtime friend of mine."

Indeed, back in late 2005 I speculated strongly that Chirac had been receiving money from Saddam's half-brother/cousin who was the Iraqi Ambassador to the UN in Geneva. It would be relatively easy for Saddam's kin to arrange smuggling gold across the porous border with France or perhaps make deposits in Swiss banks for the opportunistic French President. An excerpt from a book cited by NRO:

One of the most significant developments in Chirac's political career was the close personal bond he formed in the 1970s with an ambitious Iraqi official. Vice President Saddam Hussein had come to France during those years to shake hands and sign oil contracts — and few were as keen to accommodate him as Chirac. Over several years, the two men met frequently in Baghdad and Paris while brokering a massive set of trade agreements that had Iraq supplying France with 700 million barrels of oil over ten years and spending billions on French military equipment, including tanks, missiles, and Mirage F-1 fighters. In addition, Iraq agreed to buy 100,000 French-made cars and invited French companies to develop a billion-dollar resort complex near Baghdad. Hussein, of course, wanted something in return: French assistance in building a nuclear reactor plus a source of weapons-grade uranium to use as starter fuel. Chirac was so eager to oblige that Hussein's infamous Osirak nuclear reactor earned the nickname O'Chirac among French critics of the deal.

Of course, now the world realizes it can be grateful to Israel for doing the dirty work necessary to keep a madman from attacking the entire Middle East and then Israel itself. But the MSM still refuses to admit that the newly declassified documents proving the MSM's hopeless bias against Bush are newsworthy.

As I have noted before, a three-year recent study by UCLA/Missouri conclusively demonstrated that the entire MSM has a POLITICAL BIAS TOWARD THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND LEFT-WING CULTURAL BIASES.

Strangely enough, the authoritative report was not even covered by the MSM.

However, a recent report by the Columbia School of Journalism, an institution with a strong POLITICAL BIAS TOWARD THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND LEFT-WING CULTURAL BIASES, received FRONT-PAGE COVERAGE across all major organs of the agitprop anti-Bush media, aka the MSM.

Who wouldda thunkit?!?

And the recent news about WMD being removed just before the advent of the US invasion and the more recent news about the declassified Iraqi documents indicating a relationship with Al Qaeda?

Duhhh. You won't hear or read about it in the EXEMPT LIBERAL MEDIA, aka MSM.
