Much of the discussion has focused on how to deal with the rise of a new generation of terrorists, schooled in Iraq over the past couple years. Top government officials are increasingly turning their attention to anticipate what one called "the bleed out" of hundreds or thousands of Iraq-trained jihadists back to their home countries throughout the Middle East and Western Europe. "It's a new piece of a new equation," a former senior Bush administration official said. "If you don't know who they are in Iraq, how are you going to locate them in Istanbul or London?"

Way to admit the invasion of Iraq has massively increased the recruiting power and anger base for these organisations to draw recruits from creating an entire new generation of jihadists, just the way the Afghan war did for the last generation. Way to go guys.
