"Recently the Australian Prime Minister came out and said his country had clear intelligence information absolutely linking Iraq to al Qaeda. "

I'll believe the Australian intelligence when I see it. Tony Blair and George Bush have said the same thing and yet come up with zero convincing evidence, while leaked intelligence reports from the CIA and MI6 contradict their political paymasters over and over again. Jimbo says he believes George Bush is supplied with better intelligence than the posters here, which is obviously true, but the people supplying him with that intelligence clearly don't agee with his interpretations (I'd say outright fabrications, but never mind) of it.
I also serisouly doubt that George Bush is gifted with more personal intelligence in te sense of intellect than the average poster here (at least the non-anonymous regulars) but that's a different matter I suppose [img]/forums/images/icons/wink.gif[/img] .
