so please tell (for example) london, spain, belgium, bali, myanmar, egypt, bangladesh, riyadh, jakarta, jeddah, the phillipines, and of course, iraq (which didn't have a single terrorist attack since the early 80s on its citizens until 2003) that this is a sound strategy.
Oh yes, the Iraqi's were better off under Sadam werent they?

That does bring up an interesting question.... the statistics that show increases in terror attacks- do they include Iraq? If so, and I suspect they do, then it gets a big fat "no-duh" from me.
