President Bush on Tuesday lashed out at critics who say that al-Qaida's operation in Iraq is distinct from terrorists who attacked the United States on Sept. 11, 2001.

"The merger between al-Qaida and its Iraqi affiliate is an alliance of killers and that is why the finest military in the world is on their trail," Bush said.

Citing security details he declassified for his speech, Bush described al-Qaida's burgeoning operation in Iraq as a direct threat to the United States. Bush accused critics in Congress of misleading the American public by suggesting otherwise.
In broad strokes, Bush linked the Iraq war to an event that Americans remember deeply — the Sept. 11 attacks, not the sectarian strife among Iraqis, which has caused some to question U.S. military involvement.
Al-Qaida had no active cells in Iraq when the U.S. invaded in March 2003, and its operation there is much larger now than before the war, U.S. intelligence officers say. The war itself has turned into a valuable recruiting tool for al-Qaida, senior intelligence officials concede.
Taking this into account the next line is the cool part and what can only be considered cartoon logic....

Bush denied that the war triggered al-Qaida's operations in Iraq.
Though I'm pretty sure Lil Bush wouldn't come up with that one.

I'm not sure that I see what he's said wrong...
kind of like a bulletin board subscription service? i can see that. isn't like they have an entrance exam, but rather accept all takers to teh cause. if anything, a up-and-coming terrorist group can claim "legitimacy" by claiming to be a local al-queda charter.

so the best way to fight them is to have shills doing spectacularly incompetent operations. like setting themselves on fire near - but not at - perceived soft-targets.

It's somewhere between a non-sequitur and a look-ma-no-hands of semi-related knowledge.

A cheeseburger contains one piece of meat, while a double cheeseburger contains two. Think about it. You see where I'm going with this.
