Laurie Mylroie is a U.S. specialist on Iraq. She is best known for her argument that Iraq under Saddam Hussein sponsored the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and many subsequent terrorist attacks. She is one of the few commentators who believes that Iraq was directly complicit in the September 11th Attacks. Her views with respect to the Iraq-9/11 connection are decidedly in the minority, and she has been criticized by many, including CNN terrorism analyst Peter Bergen who went so far as to call her a "crackpot".

She has a doctorate in Political Science from Harvard University and was employed in the Government Department there. She was an associate professor at the U.S. Naval War College, and advisor on Iraq to Bill Clinton in his 1992 campaign for President.

She is now an adjunct fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.
