It's not a bad thing if that's what was happening. But it's not. We're fighting Iraqi guerrillas that were created after our invasion. Military leaders have determined that the majority of insurgents are not foreign fighters.

While we're killing everyone in Iraq, al Qaeda is fat and happy in Pakistan and Afghanistan continueing to plot against American cities. The only ones making any real difference in this war on terra is Pakistan who is, yes, arresting those they find. Of course that's being hampered by Bouche's people leaking classified info to the press, but that's another thread.

Again I ask: were the terrorist activities occurring around the globe at this same pace prior to our invasion?

Personal responsibility, try taking some. Oh yeah, GOP's mantra - do as I say, not as I do.
