trader, they arent just in iraq they have cells all over the world.... besides that, iraq wasnt a haven for al qaida. the majority of fighters there are tribal residents, sunni vs. shia.... and they hate our presence. we are seen as occupiers... you know that...how many people do you think it takes to plan an event...you dont send an army in to break up a gang. thats like bombing the whole city of chicago to get al capone...its police work...
