"We really need to beat AQ because they will follow us if we don't"

No one believes that Nadine, except you and the other die-hard neocons. AQ is in 100 countries. Iraq isn't critical for them - it's just their basic training and Darwinian testing ground provided by us. They are an ally of convenience for the local Sunnis. We'll never beat them militarily, with our military that's designed to beat other nation-states. AQ is an IDEA, and it will take more powerful and persuasive IDEAS to defeat them. The Bushies have none, with their silly, stupid military war on a tactic.

I think the only reason they haven't struck us again is they don't want to rock the boat of their best recruiter, George W. Bush, but, you'd really have to ask them. Iraq isn't the reason.
