We left the job undone when we neglected Afganistan and invaded Iraq. If we were serious, we would have invaded Saudi Arabia, where most of terrorist come from. This just a way to transfer large portions of our economy to Haliburton and its subsideries.

No we have actual bases with dorms and everything over in Saudi. If we were "just visiting" the troops would still be in tents.
