It clearly states that the number and spread of jihadists have increased since the invasion. There's a clear link. It does not bode well for future considering all of the jihadists attacks listed in your post. Again, that's my point.

We have put pressure on the radicals, it makes sense that they would increase their own recruitment efforts in response. My point was that not doing anything but using harsh words and the odd missle strike wasn't doing anything to protect us. I would much rather these guys flock to Iraq, into the waiting jaws of our military than be free to organize an attack on US soil again. So far so good.
