For those of you who really believe that the main effort in the fight against terrorism is in Afghanistan, and not in Iraq; and, who believe that the insurgency is almost completely filled by local Iraqis and doesn’t really involve foreign fighters, I invite you to watch the following:

Convoy of Martyrs” - produced by Al-Qaeda in Iraq. ALL of the scum in this video are non-Iraqis.
The Role of Foreign Fighters in the Iraq Jihad” - by the NEFA Foundation. (H/T Counterterrorismblog)

Also, read this story, about how the Taliban are exporting their jihad to Iraq. In addition, here’s a report from a Canadian journalist held hostage in Iraq - by Taliban. Finally, Iraq is now a training base for Taliban fighters.

Why or how we got involved in Iraq is beside the point. We are there now. Bottom line - if we don’t focus our efforts in Iraq, where do we?
