Making arrests = stopping the spread? 3/4 of the Islamic world? Prove it! Once again sound logic!

Every European state, Russia, Indonesia, India china,etc are monitoring Isalmic clerics etc. and arresting and deporting them if they preach the radical stuff.

"Neutralized OBL? I'm sure victims in Spain and London would disagree."

Sure they would it's common knowledge that the groups were not directly aligned with Al Queda. Mor eof a sypathtic.

The best is your notion that Saddam was the most overt at the time. We didn't have him neutralized? Common thought in the world at the time was not. I am not aware of Kim Il paying to kill Isrealis or having a track record of invading other countries. Not too sure there are terroists groups training in NK with his blessings either. Iran could have been hit first but I think the whole Middle east would have imploded. No One liked Saddam.
