Tell us something we don't know!

Anyone with any common sense could have guessed that the world is not a safer place after the heinous invasion of Iraq. Since all the other excuses for going to war, WMDs etc, have evaporated, Bush and Co recently has been using the 'world is a safer place'™ reason to justify the illegal invasion. Now that has been thoroughly debunked it will be interesting to see how Bush and Co will try to justify 'staying the course'™..

Spy Agencies Say Iraq War Worsens Terrorism Threat

The classified National Intelligence Estimate attributes a more direct role to the Iraq war in fueling radicalism than that presented either in recent White House documents or in a report released Wednesday by the House Intelligence Committee, according to several officials in Washington involved in preparing the assessment or who have read the final document.

The intelligence estimate, completed in April, is the first formal appraisal of global terrorism by United States intelligence agencies since the Iraq war began, and represents a consensus view of the 16 disparate spy services inside government. Titled “Trends in Global Terrorism: Implications for the United States,’’ it asserts that Islamic radicalism, rather than being in retreat, has metastasized and spread across the globe.
