The White House acknowledged that Iraq was among several factors that "fuel the spread of jihadism" but said that winning the war would dishearten potential terrorists.
Spokesman Tony Snow sought to challenge news reports on Sunday about the latest National Intelligence Estimate for Iraq, which represents the comprehensive consensus findings of the 16 US intelligence agencies.
"It assesses that a variety of factors, in addition to Iraq, fuel the spread of jihadism, including longstanding social grievances, slowness of the pace of reform, and the use of the Internet," he told reporters.
"And it also notes that should jihadists be perceived to have failed in Iraq, fewer will be inspired to carry on the fight," the spokesman said.
This is huge! This administration never takes the responsibility for anything!
But to follow it up by saying "that if we can just keep doing what we have doing surely this thing will get better" is insane! There is absolutely no evidence that sticking with this plan will solve any of our security needs here at home. As a matter of fact if you think about it rationally you have to wonder how anybody could have ever believed such a thing was possible.
