military action will not increase the terrorist attacks, it will just cut away at the terrorists base of people from which they can enrol attackers.

That is very doubtful. If it was the case that this invasion would result in less terrorism then why is the US now on an orange alert started as the invasion began?
Clearly, even the government here realizes the risk of a terrorist attack is now greater.

I'm sure you wouldn't want to have any thoughts that are not in line with the government now, would you?
