The failure of the 'War on Terror'

The number of world wide terror attacks tripled from 2004 to 2005 from 3,194 to more than 10,000. Iraq is counted in the numbers, comprising roughly half of the 10,000, but it does not count attacks against US, Iraqi, or other coalition forces.

If, in the wake of 9/11 the Bush administration had chosen to wage a war on terrorism, rather than masking their middle east policy under the rhetoric of terrorism, we would all be better off.

Too complex a topic for a bumpersticker, but this is the ultimate incompetence of this administration from which most of their other mistakes have flowed.
