Panel: 'No Credible Evidence' of Saddam-Al Qaeda Link

Eric Niiler reports on Wednesday's final hearing of the commission investigating the government's response to terrorism before and after the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Among other findings, the commission concludes there is no credible evidence linking deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein with the al Qaeda terrorists who hijacked commercial airliners and crashed into the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
