    re: fallguy - counting mosques The attack on Iraq will be a propaganda coup for the Islamic extremists like cleric Abu Hamza. It will be seen as evidence of Bin Ladens claim that the west is at war with Islam. You can defeat a country but you can't defeat a religion. Fundamentalism, in all its ugly forms, is a greater menace than a despot like Hussein.

    The $150 billion cost of the Iraq campaign would be better directed towards a high quality secular education for the children of all the countries in the region infected by religious zealots.

    If Bush defeats Iraq but inflames Islamic opinion he will have won the battle but lost the war. Bin Laden proved the US is vulnerable and Bushsr misguided aggression will ensure that this vulnerability is tested again.
