Only you believe that. Even the admin, including Bush, doesn't believe that. They've admitted multiple times they were wrong.

It doesn't take much imagination to envision numerous Fedayeen or al-Quada terrorists entering this country legally or illegally. Our country has had liberal policies to allow Saudi and other Arabs to enter as students, most pursuing degrees in science and engineering. We have an uncontrolled border to the south for people to come across. Canada's lax 'multicultural' immigration policies have allowed terrorist groups to form there and have access through our northern border, evident in the recent Toronto arrests.
Exactly. That's why a conventional battlefield (Iraq) will not address an unconventional enemy. How in the world can you believe that it will?

Now, imagine our intelligence gathering and law enforcement programs encumbered with so many 'civil rights' restrictions which make it impossible to track these people or monitor what they are up to. You've got all the ingredients necessary to allow some very spectacular terrorist attacks.
Again, what does Iraq have to do with that?
