Dear Mr.Daniel Pipes,
I do really admire and respect your vision and political wisdom.But may I humbly disagree with you on seeing the war in Iraq as a success. It is yet too early to view this way. For me,the war on terror is not a war to be fought with conventional means which is limited to a particular location such as Iraq or Afaganistan.Islam has already declared a continuous war of global proportions against infidel non-Muslim world. They use both violent and non-violent methods. Those who use violent means are viewed as terrorists.Non-violent method is a very silent warfare waged incessantly in every part of infidel society which only a few can notice.

It is only an insignificant relief that Saddam has gone.There are many would-be Saddams and Osama Bin Ladens waiting to take up their role in the endless war of Jihad against the West and all infidel world.Democracy is an absurd idea in a Muslim society which is incompatible with strict Islam.America has spent billions of dollars and scrificed a lot life trying to fulfil a pipe-dream of establishing democracy in Iraq.Let Iraqis take care of themselves! Instead of wasting so much money and American lives and earning a lot of ingratitude in Iraq,America needs to focus on more realistic ways of confronting this threat.
