Terrorism is on the rise - thanks to Bush!

Things are really getting better, McCain? Really? These reports beg to differ:

The Green Zone, supposedly the "safe haven" within Iraq, was penetrated by a suicide bomber, who managed to blow himself up in the cafeteria of the Iraqi Parliament building!

Iraqis are begging the Red Cross to find some way to get the dead bodies picked up off the streets. However, ambulance drivers are being threatened with death if they take the bodies away.

Meanwhile, in the "War on Terror," al-Qaeda has bombed the prime minister's headquarters and a police base in Algeria, and four suicide bombers were killed in Morocco after confronted by police there.

In Great Britain, both the Oxford Research Group and Oxfam have concluded that the occupation of Iraq has done more to foster terrorism than to weaken it. Iran, Syria, and North Korea have become emboldened, and the Taliban is coming back up in Afghanistan. In addition to other global factors - climate change, economic destabilization, and dwindling natural resources, amongst others - both groups conclude that the world is heading for major trouble if we do not address such matters swiftly.
