Question of the Day: Is London Really Bush's Fault?

It seems the Worlds Leftists and the media are now working overtime to find a way to blame the London bombing on President Bush and the Iraq war. Its as if the whole terror war suddenly showed up on Thursday.

So…

If “Bush and his Illegal War” are to really to blame for the current state of Terrorism which is clear because of course we know that prior to Bush and proir to Iraq, the world was at peace with itself, then who are we to blame for the other acts of terror that happened before Thursday? To be fair, let’s go back one Administration and lay out the whole case.

To help Illustrate my point, I will insert in BOLD TYPE the leftist alternate headlines for the events of the day so we can see the terror acts in their true perspective from the eyes of those on the left.

My thanks to Wikipedia for the original list of Terror Attacks for 1992 to Present Day.
