That's a feature and not a bug. It was a great loss to the terrorists. Their behavior and their defeat has undermined their ideology.
What defeat???? There are more terrorists world wide now then there were before our wars on terror.
The insurgents were Sunnis and were complicit in the brutal dominion over the Shia before we arrived. We saved countless lives and freed a people.
Go back and read the data at Iraq Body Count. There were no where near the number of deaths in Iraq before our war against them. We killed many more times the number of innocent civilians than the terrorists did on 9/11.
And if you consider being occupied by a heavily armed foreign army as being free then we have very different definitions of freedom.
