Yes the war in Iraq has created more terrorists.

That was a side effect of the purpose of the war. It was never totally about oil. It was never totally about revenge for trying to kill Daddy. It was about moving the terrorists attacks off U.S. soil to a part of the world that the U.S. gov't could get away with. Iraq was the top choice because there was a bad history there between the nations and the gov't could hide behind other reasons for being there. Half the nation thinks Bush is a moron, the other half sees what he's accomplished. There has not been another terrorist attack on U.S. since 911. That was exactly what the gov't wanted. They moved the battlefield from the U.S. to a foreign nation, very far away from the general public. They can never "win" because there is nothing to win. They've used this whole "fiasco" as a very smart plan to make the terrorists attack their superior army, not it's innocent citizens.

(I'm no fan of Bush, but I think you have look at things from every angle.)
