Concentrate on the first 9/11, which had nothing to do with Iraq. What makes you think an invasion of Iraq will have any bearing on stopping a new 9/11 if it is carried out by people who are not Iraqis and who have no connection to Iraq? Though granted, NOW there could be Iraqis who want to blow us up too. So, even though we have increased our security measures, I would think there are probably more people who have a desire to harm us now, than did before.

How will you feel if there is another 9/11 and it is directly tied to our invasion of Iraq?

It's silly to confuse 9/11 and Iraq, really. The one had nothing to do with the other- although I will grant you, the propaganda for the war did manage to conflate the two issues nicely in many minds- but it's waring off for most people.
