Fakta: Bush/Fogh taber terrorkrigen pga. Irak

Bush har offentliggjort "National Intelligence Estimate" (NIE) om terrorisme fra de amerikanske efterretningstjenester. Rapporten viser tydeligt, at Bush/Fogh taber til terroristerne (se grafik). Faktisk efter 9/11 gik terrorismen tilbage - lige indtil invasionen af Irak, hvorefter terroren "eksploderede".

Først hvad er "National Intelligence Estimate":

A National Intelligence Estimate is just exactly what the title says it is. An NIE isn´t issued every day. It sometimes takes weeks to write and coordinate. Even the decision to prepare an NIE in the first place is a painstaking one. It is a BIG DEAL, in other words. An NIE is not a single report from a single agency, but represents the considered judgment of the entire intelligence community (16 different agencies, in theory) on a subject deemed to be of vital significance to makers of national security and foreign policy.

NIE konkluderer, at Irak er blevet terroristernes hovedgrund i rekrutteringen af nye terrorister - husk, at indtil Irak faldt terrorangrebene!

The Iraq conflict has become the "cause celebre" for jihadists, breeding a deep resentment of US involvement in the Muslim world and cultivating supporters for the global jihadist movement.

Endnu en gang tilbagevises Fogh/Bush´ begrundelse for Irak-krigen, og at Irak-krigen er uden indflydelse på terrorismen.

Eller endnu værre: Forestil dig en verden uden Irak-krigen, hvor terrorangrebene var fortsat med at svinde ind i omfang og antal!
