I explained it in the post. Reread it.
The reason it's made you unsafer is:
- becuase you are now a larger target
- because American soldiers and citizens are being killed daily in Iraq (or do these not count in your opinion?)
- because there are now millions of angry muslims who are more likely to tacitly support anti-Americanism
- because there are now hundreds of thousands more angry militants who are more likely to act upon their anger becuase the invasion of Iraq
- because the invasion of Iraq is probably the best recruitment aid for Al Queda and probably in their favour
- because Iraq was not a threat to the US before the invasion, but now it is
- because, because, because...
I could go on. I'm suprised you believe otherwise.
With regards to their being no attacks since the invasion, I think you're mixing up cause and affect. I'll tell you what. There hasn't been any attacks since Janet Jackson's tit fell out. Therefore her tit must be helping protect America.
As we say in Ireland, "same difference"
