I just can't see the link. Al-Qaida's an Islamist group with crusader-like visions of grand expansionism, and they're going to use anything they can get as an excuse to attack us. They have a mission. (It's all pretty similar to the Bushies and their one-mindedness towards Iraq). If it's not Iraq, it'll be something else. Al-Qaida should be the aim of the "war on terrorism". The war on Iraq should be a war on Iraq and rogue states. They go hand in hand to some extent, and the Bush administration uses the "war on terrorism" to go after Iraq, but they're really two different things.

Just look at what you're saying up above. You are trying to have it both ways.

While I believe its possible that al Qaeda and leaders of rogue states may hook up from time to time, I believe its a rare mainly because I think their differing ideologies keep them apart more than their common religion might keep them together.

There is a world of difference between a Saddam and an OBL. And its the difference that scares me.
