I would whole heartedly agree that a war with North Korea would not necessarily be fought within the context of the GWOT. But we are not talking about North Korea here. The President of the UNited States, as recently as last week stated the war in Iraq is the war on terror.

Mr Pipes believes the war on terror is really a war against radical Islam. OK, fair enough. But would he agree that since the fall of the Tyrant Saddam, radical Islam has nested itself within Iraqi society?

It was there already, but repressed. Since the opening of Iraqi politics, it can be expressed.
