Will a series of invasions and occupations make us more or less vulnerable to terrorist attack? That is the question we need to answer.

That is certainly what we are discussing here. If the majority of Islam was against us in the same way as the "Islamists" are, we would be in major trouble by attacking them. But the bunch we are up against is a small minority of Islam. How many, we will never know for sure. We know that the Majority of Islam has fought and beat them.

These Governments that have fought and beat them are certainly not Angels. And we have supported a lot of them in the past that we will not support in the future.

We have to predicate our actions on the basis that we can fight and beat them. We are not the Russians. Our experience in Afghanistan vs theirs points that out.
