No, but the threat of terrorists getting state support and encouragement will be crippled for sometime
saddam used to pay Palestinian families moneyto blow up Israelis.
At the very least saddam's intel was very cozy with AQ.
He did in fact permit active terror schools and groups to operate in Iraq for training and organizational purposes.
Unless the left cripples our efforts there into another self-inflicted Veitnam style defeat, this war will bring about very good results in the region and the world.
