Hmmm, Bush and Cheney full of BS, looks like it: MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THE LINK TO SEE THE GRAPH!

The time has long past for us to fight back against the administration's baseless propaganda about Iraq and its effect on worldwide terrorism. Mother Jones help us do that with their exclusive study:

Has the war in Iraq increased jihadist terrorism? The Bush administration has offered two responses: First, the moths-to-aflame argument, which says that Iraq draws terrorists who would otherwise �be plotting and killing Americans across the world and within our own borders,� as President Bush put it in 2005. Second, the hard-to-say position: �Are more terrorists being created in the world?� then-Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld asked at a press conference in September 2006. �We don�t know. The world doesn�t know. There are not good metrics to determine how many people are being trained in a radical madrasa school in some country.�

We have undertaken such a study, drawing on data in the mipt-rand Terrorism database (terrorismknowledgebase.org), widely considered the best unclassified database on terrorism incidents.

Our study yields one resounding finding: The rate of fatal terrorist attacks around the world by jihadist groups, and the number of people killed in those attacks, increased dramatically after the invasion of Iraq. Globally there was a 607 percent rise in the average yearly incidence of attacks (28.3 attacks per year before and 199.8 after) and a 237 percent rise in the fatality rate (from 501 to 1,689 deaths per year).

That the execution of the PNAC agenda & imperial invasion should breed greater misery & injustice can hardly be surprising.

Violence & hate has never decreased violence & hate.

Only love, wisdom & compassion. This is an ancient law.

The real cause of terror is that mideast regimes teach hate and incite violence as a weapon.

70,000 trained in Al Qaeda camps in the 1990s. While the US was protecting MUSLIM Kurds from Saddam and MUSLIMS in Kosovo from Slobidan. Then there was Somaila where the US was trying to help out a muslim nation. This was also when president Bill Clinton was trying to bring a peace between Israel and the Palestinian side. What was the problem then?

The US never invaded Iraq to "invade Iraq" the US invaded Iraq in order to invade the middle east.
