>>So do you think Osama bin Laden and his gang are winning the "war", and America is losing? How's Osama's stock market doing lately? How's his health care? Did he enjoy his Ramadan visit with his family? How many people have joined Osama's winning ranks since 9/11 versus the number that have immigrated to the losing side of the USA? :-)<<

Elroy -

Viewing this issue as a black and white question of winning and losing is not a good way of understanding it.

As Suma pointed out, after 9/11 we had the whole world, including much of the Islamic world, on our side. After our invasion of Iraq, millions and millions of people all over the world went from being sympathetic to being antithetic to our cause.
