While the "War on Terror" has been without focus, the excursion into Afghanistan for al-Qaeda was a necessity.

But the war on the Taliban and attempt at nation-building were over-reaches, and the invasion of Iraq was totally unnecessary.

It is true new terrorist threats were created but that's not the only result — al-Qaeda was dismantled (the primary goal).

By the way, I don't buy into the 'it's all a conspiracy by the military-industrial complex to dupe Americans' theme.
