that any republican candidate wants to extend a war that can be used to drive fear into Americans. The repubs think that the only way to win is to kill those who disagree with us or will not conform to us. They fail to see how Iraq only serves to recruit followers of those who oppose us. They fail to see the hypocrisy of believing that the attacks on us unified us, but attacks on them won't do the same. It creates a shared sense of oppression for them and only deepens the desire to attack us. The sad thing is that Iraq was virtually terrorist free before we went there.
