Nah, most of the numbers that we hear about the recent growth of terrorist organizations post-Iraq come from Muslim based news organizations and are passed on to ABC, CBS, NBC, etc...

regardless of your stance on the war, the fact that terrorism is receiving an increase in support since the US invasion of Iraq is just that, fact. It's not something to argue about.

The other side, of course, is that the 'war on terror' has been thrust into the public eye, and governments around the world are spending more time and effort fighting this problem than ever before .... (regardless of the fact that Iraq had jack shit to do with 9/11 & Al Qaeda).

SO maybe it balances out...Damned if we do, damned if we don't.
