Why hasnt anyone made the point in the media that the war in Iraq to some degree has kept the terrorists at bay at home.  A lot of the insurgents that would be free to attack other American targets are busy fighting out troops in Iraq.  Not to mention the other arab countries know that if they support terror that they could be next.  Regardless of whether Saddam had WMDs, we took him down and it had to have given the other heads of the the arabic countries a heads up.
