Please note that Iraq DOES NOT appear on the following list, in spite of Team Bush's maniacal insistence that they sent troops to Iraq to fight "terrorism". Don't let them change the definition anymore. When Americans think of terrorists, we think of al Qaeda. Bring the troops home from Iraq, and the insurgents will not follow them home. Al Qaeda will. That's the difference.

1. Since they have done NOTHING about terrorism, they no longer
have a "War on terror" they are calling it something else now. However, they did capture Saddam in a "spider hole"!
