Conveniently overlooking the recent Sarin discovery in Iraq and the
presence of Al-Zawaheri at the beheading of Nick Berg.

If it doesn't fit the perconception simply ignore it.

We all might start at this point by acknowledging that Islamic
fundamentalist terrorism is NOT a national movement. The repetition of
things like "why Iraq" or "the 9/11 perps were all Saudi" ignores the
fact that the terrorists don't represent a particular country but
rather a particular ideology that is inimical to democracy and
Judeo/Christian societies. It isn't Afghanistan or Iraq or Somalia or
Sudan or Yemen or Saudi that is the core threat, it's the
fundamentalist Islamic movement.

A brief review of Samuel Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations" might
be in order.
