Saddam Hussein and Ansar al-Islam
C.S. Scott of Security Watchtower and I have been working on a presentation on Ansar al-Islam. It details the origins of the group in Iraq, and how it has morphed into a significant network in Europe.
As part of this work. Mr. Scott has put together a masterful diagram outlining a timeline/genealogy of Ansar al-Islam. It illustrates how terror networks can spread like kudzu. Do check it out.
It is part of a post highlighting how Saddam Hussein was surely aware of Ansar al-Islam, and had some kind of agreement with the group.
The full graphic presentation will be forthcoming in the near future.

As usual, your speculation is more than mere guesswork.
Saddam did indeed have many contacts with various Ansar types.
There were many agreements and quid pro quos. Thats how things work in that region.
Another good place to search is the whole convoluted relationships the PUK and KDP have had with Saddam and their alliances and wars. Odd to us in the west how they can fight one year and be friends of convenience the next.
