John,

You don't think this country is ready to kill al Qaeda?

Only on a battlefield. If there is no battlefield, there will be no dead Al Qaeda Jihadists.

Hell, we've killed over 10,000 Iraqi civilians, probably close to the total number of al Qaeda, maybe a little short. But those folks didn't do anything except try to survive. Many woman and kids.

Civilians deaths were unintentional / collateral damage. Guess where? On a battlefield.

The tendency to blow threats way out of proportion. al Qaeda, especailly their leadership, is smart and sophisticated enough to hit us at home. Most of the other Muslim "Jihadists" are local guys, doing local stuff.

Ture, but some will rise to the occasion. Especially now that they know it can be done. Genie is out of the bottle. We need to figure out a way to put deal with it.

Get al Qaeda. Hello, they are not in Iraq!

That's news to me. The same recruits that went to camps in Afghanistan now go to Iraq.

Why you guys want to make this some kind of world religious war, the next Crusades, is beyond me.

What do you mean by "you guys". I think it is Al Qaeda that wants a religious war.
