The terrorist attacks in your "flypaper zone" are from terrorists that would likely not be killing anyone anywhere if we were not there.

In all this time, not one person has ever come up with one significant piece of evidence to back this idea up. Yet this has become an article of faith in the anti-war world.

I went over this once before, linking to some long lists of terrorists and terror leaders currently attacking people around the world. I was unable to find any of them who was a formerly quiet person only radicalized by the invasion of Iraq. Hell, most of their careers predate 9/11.

Again, we are not talking about the insurgents in Iraq, the Baathist Sunni dead-enders attacking U.S. military targets. We're talking terrorists like al Qaeda and other targeting mostly civilians.
