Global Terrorism up 25% in 2006.

Global Terrorism up 25% in 2006. Iraq's sectarian warfare fueled a sharp increase in global terrorism, the U.S. State Department reported Monday.

OH!....NOW the Bush Administration figures it out....way to connect the dots 4 years too late.

*sigh*

This stupid war.. it's completely useless.

Well, apparently, its done well to increase our gross global terrorism output. 13

That and the Bush Administration has done nothing to better protect the US from a terrorist attack, and yet they claim that the "terrorists win" if anyone dare supports the opposition. Never mind that the Homeland Security appropriations a couple years ago were primarily pork given to, among other things, a petting zoo and a roller rink. Never mind that Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda actually wanted Bush to stay in office last election, and yet the Republicans successfully painted Kerry as the chosen candidate of terrorists.

Remind me why the GOP is still functioning?

How exactly do they quantify "terrorism" into a single percentage?

Number of attacks? Number killed? Weapons trafficking? Money laundering? Does the recent Virginia Tech shooting count?

Oh yeah, blame it on Bush. 31

Can someone remind me again..how many terrorist attacks there has been in the US since the war?

And how many terrorist attacks have there been worldwide? Oh wait! According to the State Department, it's increased 25%! And a nice slice of that is because of Iraq, a problem we caused! Plus there's the fact that Republicans, the so-called "National Security" party, oppose implementing the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission, recommendations that would better protect us from possible terrorist threats!

Riddle me that, redneck 131

Still waiting.

What's the point of rhetorical questions? Just say what you gotta say

Global terrorism is up, yes.

But isnt it funny that the US, which is the one in this war, hasnt been attacked? Maybe the other countries should join up and start fighting against terrorism..it has worked for the United States so far.

I have a magic rock that keeps tigers away. You don't see any tigers around, so it must be working.

Really, though, the question to ask is: is there evidence that the Department of Homeland Security has prevented terrorist attacks on the United States? (And, no, school shootings don't count.)

And no, there is no evidence that the DOHS has prevented potential terrorist threats, nor is there evidence that any such threats have been planned. Terrorist cells in the Middle East seem to be content with killing U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan
