Like ants to honey....

Remember the "Flypaper Strategy", in which we were told that invading Iraq is a good thing because it gives terrorists a target that isn't in America? Well, it may be working: Al Qaeda may be diverting its attention from Afghanistan and heading for Iraq.

I find it difficult to conceive how this can be good news. First, it pretty much confirms that there was never a credible connection between Iraq and Al Qaeda in the first place; second, and worse, this makes the prospects for getting that nice, shiny and new Democratic and Stable Iraq a bit less likely.

Ugh.
