bin Laden and Iraq.

The following is an email I sent to Thomas Friedman who writes the Foreign Affairs column on the Op-Ed page in the New York Times.
Dear Mr. Friedman,

Although you support going to war with Iraq (albeit with some reservations) I admire your reasoned approach. Here's something for you to consider. Would you agree that Osama bin Laden is probably very happy to see us invade Iraq? If so, doesn't this in some sense mean that by invading Iraq we are aiding al Qaeda? It seems to me ironic that in the name of fighting terrorism (but of course as we know Iraq has nothing to do with terrorism against the US) that we will actually be helping the real terrorists.
