While this is probably no surprise of anyone here on this board (that Saddam Hussein supported terrorism), the media in general has been spewing false information that there is no such evidence.
Here is an article from The Weekly Standard that contradicts the media's usual stance.
Saddam's Dangerous Friends
What a Pentagon review of 600,000 Iraqi documents tells us.

This ought to be big news. Throughout the early and mid-1990s, Saddam Hussein actively supported an influential terrorist group headed by the man who is now al Qaeda's second-in-command, according to an exhaustive study issued last week by the Pentagon. "Saddam supported groups that either associated directly with al Qaeda (such as the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, led at one time by bin Laden's deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri) or that generally shared al Qaeda's stated goals and objectives." According to the Pentagon study, Egyptian Islamic Jihad was one of many jihadist groups that Iraq's former dictator funded, trained, equipped, and armed.
