UM, WE'RE FIGHTING THEM OVER THERE...

SO WE DON'T HAVE TO FIGHT THEM HERE???

That's a favorite wingnut justification for the Fiasco in Iraq and almost as sure as the sun rises in the East, it's FALSE. From ABC's The Blotter:

Brian Ross Reports:

Large teams of newly trained suicide bombers are being sent to the United States and Europe, according to evidence contained on a new videotape obtained by the Blotter on ABCNews.com.

Teams assigned to carry out attacks in the United States, Canada, Great Britain and Germany were introduced at an al Qaeda/Taliban training camp graduation ceremony held June 9.

A Pakistani journalist was invited to attend and take pictures as some 300 recruits, including boys as young as 12, were supposedly sent off on their suicide missions.
