However, 2-3 more generations and who knows where that old dilemma has gone en.wikipedia.org Same stuff, since the 13th century, funny stuff..

You sure, that US educational efforts of the 1600s, why were you a subject then and still around today?? However, some historic vouchers for education would obviously make that even easier than a regular condome for the egyptians... plus free blessings...

(1) Saddam's Iraq was no threat to US. Iraqi diplomats were expelled from Phillippines, yada yada is completely irrelevant. 9/11 terrorists were mostly Saudi, yet US did not consider Saudi Arabia enough of a threat to invade and force regime change. Myriad other nationalities attacked US interests and gave safe haven to anti-US terrorists over the years, and their countries were not invaded. Ergo, your excuse for "see, Iraq was a threat" is a very feeble one. (2)I do think, most Islamic terror groups inclined to attack America are focused on Iraq now, though. Again, if you knew anything at all about the way these people are organized, you would understand by now that their cells are not run by one headquarters. They are independent in their goals, coming up with their own plans, and asking HQ for only approval and maybe some logistics advice. Ergo, your thought there is based on a false assumption. (3) Neither you nor I know how many terrorists there are, nor do we know if their numbers are increasing or decreasing. Those of us who read a bit about what is going on in the world understand very well that new terrorists are being created every day in Iraq, as a result of this pointless war. Every day, there are stories of "normal" Iraqis losing a loved one and choosing violence to get revenge. Or seeing Abu Ghraib photos and their blood boiling to the point where they want to kill a couple of Americans. Or otherwise being fed up with the US occupation and decide to help the resistance. You would be aware of all these if you cut that direct link from the White House briefings into your brain, stopped parroting their propaganda, and got your news from sources other than Fox TV, CNN and other conservative media outlets.
