Anyone who thinks that the AQ organization, as lose an association as they may actually have with various like extremists around the world, is not a threat and will continue to be a threat to numerous states around the world is a fool. This is a battle we will be engaged in for a long time to come. And the first president to pull back from the fight will pay the price for that error.
Iraq is an entirely different discussion IMHO.
Humble?
I understand the type of fight we're in. But it isn't one that can be one with the military. Check out Global Guerillas for more info on why I think so. REALLY interesting stuff.
EDIT: Hey! It's my evil-est post!
