"Hell, we've spent 8 years killing the most competent terrorists there are."

AQ sent their trainee recruits to Iraq. If they survived and prospered, they had a place in Pakistan. We've just been running the farm league that improved their breed.

When will you morons realize that there was nothing special about Iraq for AQ? They operate in 105 countries! They weren't there before we arrived, but they may stay after we leave. You clowns are idiots.

>> made us much less secure..

You hear this a lot particularly from the Left. But nobody can back it up with any facts. It is nothing more than a left wing nutjob talking point.

Obviously, it did not make us less secure. Hell, we've spent 8 years killing the most competent terrorists there are. And at the same time, denying any new terrorists the facilities to be trained and the ability to carry out attacks.


What in God's name are you talking about? The two bombs that went off last week in Indonesia were the work of a branch of al Qaida. The only thing that's changed is al Qaida is having trouble getting new recruits. Their behavior in Iraq turned off many Muslims.

Al Qaida has their big claim to fame....9/11. They pulled off an act that cost maximum $10k to make happen and the US responded with a trillion $$$ military excursion. Whose the bigger fool?

Take a look at the article from the Colorado newspaper and tell me that we are more "secure" if this kind of stuff happened. Yup, we have "spent 8 years killing" what??
