What I find interesting to consider, and a position for obvious reasons no one is willing to admit, is we purposely allowed open borders after the Iraq invasion to entice terrorist elements to come and fight us there.

Now we have Iraqi's killing terrorist cells. As the months progress, more and more Iraqi's will be battling terrorists along with us.

Consider this, politically we couldn't go into Iraq, Syria, Libya and Saudi Arabia to directly get at many of these elements, but we knew they would come to Iraq if given the opportunity.

There, we take them out one group after another.

Interesting systems thinking model to consider. Since this war was unlike any we have ever fought before.
