The National Security argument that always will win for Dems is...

[johntao]

..."Al Qaida is Stronger because we went to Iraq."

-it's simple
-it's true

John McSame can't counter that logical argument.

1. Excellent!

And they're hanging out in Afghanistan while we pack up and hie on over to Iraq.

[calimary]

2. Welcome to DU!

It is simple, and it IS true - al Qaeda is stronger because we went to Irag - and MADE them stronger.

3. Though it may not necessarily be called Al Qaida anymore -> No doubt about it. People will not

forget who invaded a sovreign nation and killed a few tens of thousands of people who didn't need killing. People who were NOT Al Qaida. MUSLIMS OVER THE WORLD KNOW THIS and they won't forget. We've created at least a few thousand recruits to lives of Terrorism and we saw on 9/11 how few it takes to hurt us.

I've heard somewhere, they won't necessarily call themselves Al Qaida. That depends upon the pedigree of whatever leaders organize and finance them, but Death and Destruction aren't picky about a name.

I believe this country is in way more danger, for generations and generations to come, than it would have been without Bush's War. And it absolutely AMAZES me that more "ordinary" Americans don't see this.
