Having an evil dictator be 'the balance of power' is not my idea of a good thing. This argument that we are creating terror is just dumb. The terrorists already exist. They are flooding into Iraq right now. We are hunting them down and killing them. They know if they lose their days of fooling their people are over.
An Evil Dictator is bad, but Anarchy breeds terrorism.

Just like so many people who used to give Bush a 90% approval rating and now give him a 51%, many arabs that were on the fence about becomming terrorists against the US are passing over. I'm sure they hated Saddam; but now they don't even have Saddam to hate, they can focus on the US. And against an Army as powerful as ours they know that conventional warefare won't work. The only way they can make an impact is through terrorism.

If you think invading an Arab country isn't goign to cause turmoil amoung Arabs you're blind to what happens in the world outside the US. Arabs like the civilization they started, they got rid of tribes when the Islam religion was founded and decided to stick together as a Religion. That Arab unity still lives on today, that's why invading Iraq is producing terrorists in other countries.
