I haven't seen that he has any connection to Al-Quaida or 9/11.
It is very likely that he was offering money to Palestinian suicide bombers families. Let's face it. Saddam was a very bad man. The world is probably better off without him in office.
But I don't think the solution to this was war. It sets a very bad precident. How long before, the US decides that Hugo Chavez is too much a pain and decides to "liberate" Venezula? This isn't such a red herring when you look at Iraq and what took place in Central America during the 80s.
The solution, as I've said elsewhere, is policing the criminals who use terrorism as a political tool and education. The problem is, given the messed up state of affairs that is the Middle East, this solution would take decades and everyone seems to like a goverment that looks like they are doing something.
War sure looks like something in TV.
