..>>If Iraq was not part of the war on terror, or was improperly started on a premise that it was, is now unfortunately irrelevant. It is absolutely, positively now part of such a war. Al Zarqawi's participation in it and its Islamist aspects should be more than enough to convince any doubters--but I am realistic enough to know it won't.>>>

You make good point. There are always unbelievers.
Those who think the Administration or Israelis were connected to or caused 911. That OBL does not exist, that no one could hate us that much or that terrorism is caused by our own past transgressions. That Saddams followers were not as bad as they appeared.

Now we know that the terrorists were serious, that they truly hate America, that they are willing to kill UN workers or their own relatives with bombs and gunfire just to eliminate a US soldier.
That they would use any weapon, or break any rules of warfare.

And that it is fruitless to try to negotiate with the crazy ^&&**%ers.

It demonstrates that taking the war to the enemies doorstep by unilateral (when needed) action was the right choice rather than wait to fight them over here after they procure WMD's.
