By going over there it put these ######s on the run,they don't have the ability to run their terrorist camps and train suicide nuts like they use too.Just about every time since 9-11 that a major terrorist attack was stopped(NY bridge,Sears Tower,CN tower..etc) was because of intelligence in the middle east. If we aren't there we can't hear the loose lips.

I would have taken just as long but not completely blow the bank and the US army on hunting down every member of al Quada down and executed them where ever they might be, which is what we did in the end.
What the US did was strengthen Islamist extremism across the middle east, before they invaded their was significant opposition to the mullahs in Iran and they were on the verge of losing control, the invasion changed that, undermined Egypt and Pakistan, on top of that the cost and the instability has gone along way to undermine the US economy and may turn out to be the tipping point that caused the US to lose hegomany.
