I personally don't think Iraq is the root of cause for radical Islam before we invaded. The roots would be that Osama guy in Afghanistan who we've been chasing forever! Don't forget that the Clinton Administration has been chasing him for the USS Cole. Got him cornered in Pakistan, but we allowed Pakistan to harbor and refuge the SOB. Why didn't we go get him in Pakistan? And then all of a sudden, coincidentally when Saddam began to sell his oil in Euros instead of Dollars, weapons of mass destruction arised. You guys remember that? That was our trigger in the fire of Iraq. Well now, no weapons of mass destruction but we downed Saddam who got ejected out of court today, and a messed up Iraq goverment and society. Tell me Skip how is Iraq the root of cause when we have Osama in Afghanny, Iran harvesting Plutonium and Hezbollah in Lebanon. What you're saying if we have full control over Iraq all the other problems surrounding Iraq would magically disappear? There's focus elsewhere just not in Iraq who is one of the biggest oil supplier in OPEC.
Recite the Koran over and over because the Jihad part of it is becoming more and more popular amongs Muslim teachings. It was once a last resort in the name or Allah, now that they feel cornered it is their necessity to serve Allah.
Do we leave it alone? I believe we should because we are the problem in the Middle East. Let the people decide if they should take terrorist or the fulfillment route. Let's not anger them anymore and cause chaos, because like Raven annouced, "they're everywhere!" Even Mike Tyson I bet! We did our job and took Saddam out now let's get the F out!
