al Qaeda also has training camps in many other countries and as they are found, they tend to move on again. Do you recommend that “we” the coalition of the bemused, invade every country they might be in?
The other point is that, if Australia had not joined the US & UK in this ill-conceived invasion, we might not now be targets of the extremists.
The truth of the matter is that the US did not learn from Viet Nam that you couldn’t EVER win against dedicated fighters, if they think they are defending their homeland against an occupying force, especially if that force treats the population brutally.
