Whether we should have gone to war in the first place is immatterial, what matters is what we are doing now. We are currently trying to rebuild two broken countries who have a violent insurgency brewing. Other outside countries are leading their own unconventional warfare campaigns against the budding governments in Iraq and Afghanistan (and by extension, the US) and are not meeting entirely with failure. They are not doing this because they have Iraq or Afghanistans 'best interests' at heart.

I strongly object to warrantless wiretaps within our borders. Outside, anything goes.
