Yes. War against al Qaeda in Afganistan good. War against al Qaeda in Iraq bad.

It's amazing that libs are so stupid they cannot see that terrorists/al Qaeda are flocking to Iraq to fight the U.S. military there. Is that bad?

Libs are also too stupid obtuse and/or afflicted with BDS to understand that Iraq was the most natural refuge to which al Qaeda would flee, or source of logistsinc support, once war started in Afghanistan and we gained at least some coopertion from Pakistan's Musharaff in standing firm against al Qaeda taking over Pakistan.

As if, had the US only sent military forces to Afghanistan, al Qaeda would be standing ground and fighting us there. NOT.

They'd have fled like rats to camps in Iraq or camps in Yemen supported by Saddam Hussein's Iraqi intelligence. (No, they would not have gone into Iran enmasse because Iran might not have let them operate freely against the West - Iran is more selective in its terror operations)

Imagine the war against terror if we were NOT engaging al Qaeda in Iraq.

The administration has failed to nail down this strategic multiple front consideration over and over and over again until at least the most stupid conservative fully understood it.
