Al qaeda is happy too!

The thread topic infers that those who voted for change(this election mostly was a referendum on the war) are playing into Al Quada hands. It also infers that those of us against the war are weak on terror and sympathize with Al Quada.

Its just an extension of the mentality that got us into the war in the first place. Its transparent and tiresome. We had many congressmen voting for the war for fear of being labeled Al Quada apologists or for being soft on terror. Sadam and Al Quada were never aligned and there never was any Iraq/ 9-11 connection just as there never were WMDs.

Worst war ever. Lets get out of the pointing fingers at who started it phase. Lets get out of the trying to justify it phase. Lets stop pretending the Iraqis are better off. Lets get the Republicans and Democrats to work on a bipartisan solution to get our soldiers home as soon as possible without abandoning the brave Iraqis who supported us over there.

Hammer meet nail. Very eloquently put st dude. My sentiments exactly.

And this kind of discourse won't at all solve the problem of how to best handle Iraq given the circumstances.

I haven't crawfished, I think the initial implication of the post is crap and meaningless political demogoguery, regardless whether it's from Al-Queada or Iran does nothing for the discussion of issues vis a vis the war, terrorism, etc.
