Let me see if I understand your logic: The invasion of Iraq caused terrorists to cancel plans to hit soft targets in the US and kill thousands, but, instead, the terrorists moved to Iraq to plant roadside bombs in an efforts to kill soldiers by the handful? That makes no sense whatsoever.

By the way, aren't New York and Washington currently on high alert against a new attack... an attack the government says may have been in the planning stages for years? I don't know about you, but I don't feel safer now that my local National Guard units are in Bagdad.

Remember Eqypt's President Mubarek's warning to Bush before the Iraq invasion, that an invasion would give birth to a thousand bin Ladens? Or Richard Perle's statement that Americans would be welcomed with rose petals? Who was right?

The terrorists were not in Iraq but they were in major European cities planning ways to enter the USA in order to create another 9/11. That's exactly why the US/British move into Iraq was brilliant--it lured the Islamic terrorists unto an Iraqi battleground. Would you have preferred to fight them in NYC, Miami & LA?
