Chinu, Tonto has it exactly right. Why write things like "there are no terrorists in Iraq," when you know we all know there are? Re: "The terrorists who are there in Iraq today are from outside the country and they are there because the US is over there." Fine...that's your opinion, which surely is partly correct, IMHO. The point I'd make (and have before), is that this may be another sign that Iraq is a right place to be. Another point I'd make, is that the terrorists in Iraq aren't going to leave were we to cut out. They'd like a hand in the control of Iraq, thank-you. Re: "The Bushies have defined terrorists as those who go against them and their neocon ideas." Much like your first sentence, that's ludicrous and unfounded. Afghanistan is one place we've addressed, and are addressing, Re: "The true home of the terrorists is in the hills of Afghanistan/Pakistan border." It has been long recognized that Al Qaeda isn't limited to the Afghanistan/Pakistan border. Ok? The mastermind of 911 went to college in the U.S. He was thought of as a life of the party sort, around whom there would always be a laugh. If the U.S. proper hasn't been successfully attacked again yet, it may be because Al Qaeda simply doesn't have anyone else quite like him left, since we've captured him. The American people can appreciate facts like this one, even if they aren't among the 39% you note. Likewise, Bush doesn't count all but the 39% who currently approve of the job he's doing, as terrorists. Likewise, the rest are not necessarily against the Bush policies you appear to assume they are. Grow up, fly right, think straight. Dan B.
