No, I haven't either. Judging by what is happening world wide with Islamic militants Iraq is serving to energize them everywhere. And of course every time an Iraqi is killed in Iraq his family members could also be energized to become militant. We've allowed, by our foolish ignorant actions in the country (lack of planning, power vacuum, ignorance of clan dynamics), so many Iraqis to be killed I'm sure many of the so-called outside agitators are now actually homegrown revolutionaries (shall we call them the moral equivalents of our founding fathers? Let's not- I've never liked such comparisons.)
