| - by user Mcs81986 A few years back, the White House was trying to convince the American people that there was a connection between and al-Qaeda and there wasn’t. But now there just may be. Unfortunately, it may be all our fault. An al-Qaeda linked terrorist group claimed responsibility for the assassination attempt on Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister, Salam al-Zubaie. I find that to be an interesting, albeit unsettling, piece of information. Al-Qaeda now has influence in . They didn’t have a presence there before, but now they do. Our enemy, a terrorist organization that is our number one target with this War on Terror, is spreading. They attacked us. We attacked back. And now they’re in places they haven’t been before. Under the Hussein dictatorship, there was no probable way for al-Qaeda to have any influence in . Hussein and Bin Laden were ideological opposites. Hussein was more secular. was more westernized. Bin Laden and al-Qaeda’s enemies are westernized nations. Enemies, not allies. It worked the other way around as well. Hussein didn’t make any alliances or attempt any alliances with al-Qaeda. All of Hussein’s enemies within were oppressed or killed. Therefore any semblance of al-Qaeda members or members of groups with connections to al-Qaeda would have been killed, which means, odds are they stayed clear of altogether. You never heard of any al-Qaeda attacks on while Hussein was in power. And now, after we have gone in and liberated the Iraqis, our number one enemy appears and spreads into an area where they have no been before. As a result of the Iraq War, we have opened a gateway for al-Qaeda to enter and infiltrate. Although, Vice President Cheney claims pulling out of will embolden our enemies, staying there seems to be doing much of the same. __NOEDITSECTION__ From The Opinion Wiki, a Wikia wiki.
