-> I checked your links. The ABC news blog quotes the NY Daily News
-> extensively as their source. They are a right wing mouthpiece

Of course they are, Bob!  They must be!  They reported things that you
didn't like!

"A former commander of a group that has at times aligned with Al Qaeda
in Iraq, the Islamic Army of Iraq, Abu Azzam al Tamimi, told Al Arabiya
television on January 18, 2008, that Iran 'interferes in every aspect in
Iraq.' When asked whom Iran supports, Mr. al Tamimi said, "Everybody  it
works with the government, with the opponents of the government, with
the opponents of the government's opponents, with Al-Qaeda, with the
enemies of Al-Qaeda, with the militias, with the enemies of the militias
... Iran spreads its investments everywhere  with the Shiites, the
Sunnis, and the Kurds,""

-> The Family Security matters has a number of sources, some of which I
-> checked out, none of which prove the case.

Of course they didn't, in your eyes!  They couldn't!  They don't agree
with your preconceptions!

-> and one claims Bin Laden's son was operating out of Iran

Actually it didn't say that at all.  It said he had been given safe
haven in Iran.  That is old news to everyone but you, I guess.  The US
tried to catch him.  He escaped to Iran.  There are reports that Iran
offered to turn him over as part of a deal for releasing various
Iranians, but that never came about.

-> The 9-11 report shows Iran allegedly working with Al Qaeda, right
-> after the Afghan war, when they were not yet established as a
-> significant terror operation outside of Afghanistan.

So much foolishness in one sentence.  Connections running from 1991 to
2001.  You are complaining about the Commission focusing on the time
BEFORE the 9/11 attacks in 2001.  You forgot the NAME of the Commission?
And you believe that Al Qaeda was not significant even BEFORE it went to
Afghanistan, and that it was not significant AFTER being moved out of
Afghanistan?
