I have always been of the opinion that the previous ruling regime in Iraq and the top people ( I refrain from using leaders as that type of cellular "organisation" do not have leaders per se) in Al Qaeda co-operated with each other. I also believe that Iraq provided funding for them.
I know others feel entirely differently. In an attempt to avoid any protracted debate on the subject, let me say at this juncture this is merely an opinion based more on feeling than fact. I cannot provide links to any website which supports this view. I am sure they are there, I just don't know the URLs.
