They can expect killings and explosions for decades.

Actually, they've been dealing with that for centuries. Geography matters. N America is geographically shielded. You have to give it to the Russians - the understand terrorism much better. Iraq makes their job harder. They new it would turn into a tug nest in the interim.

Do you mean that they would have had less killing and fewer massacres recently had the war in Iraq not happened? Do you mean that they "knew" our war efforts would bring more trouble for them?

Just to be clear for the idiot media

REBEL-opposition, fighting against the government

TERRORISM - violence committed by groups in order to intimidate a population or government into granting their demands

When you attack civilians, children no less, you have crossed the line from rebel to terrorist. Would the MSM just start calling it that!!!!
