re:"AQ is now larger and stronger than it was before the war

Doubtful. Since 2001, the US has been attacked by AQ only in Iraq, though most AQ attacks there are aimed at Iraqis."

Since 2001? AQ didn't exist in Iraq in 2001 according to the Bushies and everyone else. Only attacked in Iraq....did you forget Afghanistan??? OBL is still loose and growing in Pakistan according to the Pentagon.

"the US homeland has not been struck, nor has the US been attacked elsewhere by AQ. "

Why do you continue to ignore Afghanistan? And according to you AQ is the primary enemy in Iraq. Aren't those attacks on the US?

"the number of terrorists has increased, not decreased.

We don't know that."

By you own statements, you say AQ is in Iraq where they didn't exist before. According to Bush, AQ is the primary enemy in Iraq....there were more than 5500 attacks in Iraq last month. According to you and Bush most have been by AQ. How could that be possible without an increase in strength?

And no one in the Pentagon will dispute that AQ has not increased in strength and regrouped in Afghanistan and have refuge in Pakistan.

"What you don't remember is that Iraq was a cause celebre before the current war just as it is now."

Nonsense, Iraq became a cause celebre because Bush and Cheney made it that. It was not a threat to us or anyone else.
