Make 'em stand up

The war in Iraq supposedly created many new terrorists. I disagree. Some maybe, but what it really did was make a lot of people stand up for what they believe in. This makes them stand out. So we can now see many more than we did before. Not because they are new, but because we can SEE them now. Is this not the greatest problem in fighting terrorism, Know WHO they are?
