Yes - but what the hell has this got to do with the war on terrorism. I seem to remember that a congressional committee found that there was no connection between Al Queda and Iraq. Whatever the situation now it certainly wasn't the situation at the start of this debacle. This is a poor quality president presiding over a poorly managed and ill conceived foreign policy disaster that has, for the time being at least, diminished the standing of my friends in the US in the eyes of the rest of the world and compromised the sense of sadness we feel when chopper guys buy the farm in the course of earning their daily bread.
