[edit] Prague connection
- Delete - non-notable in itself; this is part of the Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda timeline, but the phrase "Prague connection" is not commonly used outside of a very small context. The topic is dealt with better on the Saddam/Al Qaeda page than it is here; it's not clear that we need such a page. csloat 02:33, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

- note as the creator of this site I will not vote, I just want to say that this is the key event used to justify the invasion and the "meeting" is still controversial - there are still appearing new information (or new points of view [1]) ....so it could have it´s own site - to enter more points of view -the main page Hussein-Al-Qaeda is yet too long to enter details about it. The term "prague connection" is not used very often, but it is the only used name of this meeting [2]

- Thanks for the links - I had not seen the one about the Spanish trial. But I read it and I am not sure what it has to do with the Prague meeting information, other than that the author uses the Prague information as some kind of analogy. Anyway, the google search delivers 720 hits - to me that is not enough to say this is a notable phrase, especially since many of the hits land on copies of this page. A search of the Nexis database of "Major papers" for "all available dates" gives me 26 hits on this phrase, only fourteen of which actually deal with Atta. I think you're right that the alleged meeting belongs on wikipedia, but it is already here on the timeline on Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda. I don't think the phrase "Prague connection" is that notable. By the way, I think you can vote, even though you created the page. --csloat 04:16, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- OK, I agree with you. Just the main page is very very long (that´s not good). I remember that time ago the term "prague connection" was used very often in NewsTV (so I used it), bud it´s right that Google should give more results for it...
