Maybe so, Jason. But a dead terrorist buried in the sand over in Iraq, far, far away from here isn't even thinking about getting his hands on nuke-yoo-ler weapons. (Not with all those virgins running around.

)
And taking the fight to their backyard is a pretty good strategy, if you ask me.
Kerry alluded to Alawi's statement about "terrorists rushing over the border into Iraq". I think that's awesome for us. Saves us the hassle of having to hunt them down over here.
