LESS SAFE?
What's been one of the biggest arguments against Bush and the War On Terror from the Left? That going into Iraq has made the United States less safe. Well, like on everything else, the facts fly right in the face of the Democrats. Since September 2001, four years and five months, we've only had the one terror attack against America. And none since going to war with two Muslim countries. Just thought I would point this out.

Did you know that the WTC was attacked in 1993? Then again in 2001 - that's 8 years without a terrorist attack. Just saying that we haven't had a terrorist attack in x years doesn't mean a thing. The people who attacked on 9/11 did a lot of planning, took their own sweet time, and executed their plan at a fraction of the cost of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Enemies of this country have until eternity to plot, and plot they will, with every day the US stays in Iraq and Afghanistan making it worse. You should read "Blowback" by Chalmers Johnson and educate yourselves on what your nation has done in your name around the world. But one example is the overthrow of a DEMOCRATICALLY elected leader in Iran in 1953 by the CIA - Operation Ajax. Check it out. Imagine if the US govt was overthrown by Iranian agents. Would you folks like that, or would you fight back? Guess what, human beings all around the world would rally around their leaders and try to expel the foreign influence in their land. That's what the Iranians did when they overthrew the US and UK sponsored Shah of Iran and brought in the Islamic theocracy that now exists. If the US and UK had just stayed out of Iran's business in 1953, we may not have the Mullahs (and taking of the US embassy hostages etc) today. That's what is called 'Blowback' - the CIA coined the term. There is a wealth of information available to you - you live in a free country unlike China where they monitor your internet habits. Make use of your freedom and democracy and educate yourselves!
