True. But one wonders if fighting them in Iraq, which offers these guys excellent conditions, is the best possible place to fight them.

Granted, I'm not particularly enthused about the prospect of them moving on/back to Chechnya or Palestine, but from America's perspective it's not the best scenario to have to fight them against the background of mass disorder in Iraq - where they'll hold about as much advantage as they can. :hmm:
