Excellent, if uncomfortable, article. Well worth reading.

And I have to agree with the article in every respect. Things would have turned out much better if Bush had ruthlessly smashed AQ back in 2002 and given the special forces free reign to capture OBL at that time.

Now the genie is very much out of the bottle. And I fear that the West does not have the resolve needed to reverse this.

You are exactly correct Friend. What is missing though is how our actions are breeding a new more lethal variant of Islamic extremist.
