Evidence shows terrorism only exists when we occupy an Arab "holy" land. That's why we've only been attacked when we went into Lebanon, left bases in Saudi Arabia after the Gulf War and now occupy Iraq.

If we leave their land, the terrorism will stop. it won't be perfect, but Al Qaida will no longer have any reason to attack us. Plus, if we stay, it won't get much better and could probably get worse.

We are now staying in Iraq mostly just so Bush doesn't have to admit he made a collosal error. That is not a just reason for occupying Iraq, especially when we can't achieve what we want over there anyway without, some say at least 300,000 troops. Which leads to the question, why are we there in the first place? I say its the Bushies thirst for oil. For themselves, not for us.
