Very eye-opening. It makes our job more difficult, because we still need Democracy to flourish in the Middle East, which required our intervention, but we clearly need to wind it down asap and hope that we planted enough seeds that Democracy will take off on its own now. I hope we can get out by the end of 2006. The Sunnis, particularly the terrorist ringleaders, are trying to get a civil war going. I don't want American soldiers caught in the middle of that turmoil. Its the Iraqis fight.......let them go at it and bring American soldiers home. ted

Very eye-opening. Very misleading, if you ask me. It indicates placing US troops in foreign countries causes suicide terrorism, rather than something about the country's people itself producing suicide terrorists. Well why aren't there any suicide terrorist in South Korea, Germany, Japan or any of the numerous other countries that US troops? The article is an attempt to absolve the cultures and societies that produce individuals who go blow up themselves and 22 innocent bystanders from responsibility for their own actions. It's a crock.
