    You have dropped the argument that AQ was just some fringe group hiding out in Afghanistan. That is good then.

    It doesn't necessarily take a whole country to recruit 20 people, but that is where their base was. That is where bin Laden issued his declaration of war, calling on all Muslims to kill any American anywhere on earth. It is where AQ trained 1000's of terrorists.

    As for pulling our troops out now, fine with me. Even Bush's worst critics admit AQ is decimated.

    I never made that argument. I have never had a problem with the overthrow of the Taliban in 2001.

    >>I want 100% of our troops brought home from foreign countries.

    >Does that include US marines who guard US embassies

    Embassies were useful in the days of sailing ships. Now they are mostly payoffs for political support. Close them down. Government to government communication can be done electronically.

    Bring home all the troops. The EU has as large an economy as the US. Let them take their turn at saving the world

    I concur. Civil debate is welcome and encouraged in a debate forum. But not everyone is capable of or willing to discern that.
