Surprise, Surprise!

From the New York Times:

Yesterday, the director of national intelligence released a report with the politically helpful title of “The Terrorist Threat to the U.S. Homeland,” and Fran Townsend, the president’s homeland security adviser, held a news conference to trumpet its findings. The message, as always: Be very afraid. And don’t question the president.

Certainly, the report’s conclusions are disturbing. Nearly six years after 9/11, terrorism remains a huge threat.

Mr. Bush’s bungled invasion spawned a new terrorist army and gave it a home base.

In other words, Americans throwing bombs on Muslim's heads does not decrease anti-Americanism among Muslims. Who would have thought?
