So, you're saying there were MORE Al Queada in Iraq BEFORE we invaded?

Also, you don't think Iran drastically increased their financing and other forms of support for Hezbollah AFTER we went into Iraq?

I don't know how to argue the OBVIOUS....

Re: [we didn't "remove" any Al Queada from Iraq.] "Technically you are correct. They remain burried there."

That description ('buried') is appropro as Saddam Hussein lined fundamentalist extremists such as these up against walls and shot them. THEN buried.... <g>

(His regime was avowedly secular... and he brutally repressed all religiously-based political movements, on the theory that they posed an existential threat to his Dictatorship.)
