'Surge' Strategy
That was poorly phrased on my part in an attempt to make the sentence concise. My point with that sentence was that multiple terror organizations existed before the invasion and the attacks against America were not centralized and some happened on American soil. Compared to now, attacks against America have been centralized in an area away from American soil.

The iPhone
I'd wager that almost every satellite navigation user has, and nowadays that's a lot of people. But satalite navagation is legal and most people mount the on the dash in direct line of sight. With a phone you need to keep the cops from seeing it so you need to take your eyes of the road to see what your doing. In the United States, cell phone use while driving is legal.

Mind telling me how I don't make "sence?" That's another good point - tactile feedback. Many people prefer the intuitiveness and definite feel of a mechanical button, and I imagine that using such a surface to try and dial or type while driving or something of that nature would be rather hard. Pressing three things on a satellite navigation system is one thing, typing ten numbers accurately on a 3.5" screen and hitting Send would probably be a bit harder. You seem to know so much about how well a device functions that was only announced 2 days ago.

'Surge' Strategy
Whether or not they were actually operating WITH Saddam (there were Al-Queda related groups in Iraq, if you read the link I posted you would see that) is irrelevant because they did support him. That sounds like a "connection" between them and Saddam. No, Saddam was not involved with 9/11, but that does not mean that Iraq is completely uninvolved with terrorism. I don't think anyone is arguing about whether or not Saddam was involved in 9/11 or not, so I don't know why you are trying to make that point.

'Surge' Strategy
Pre-invasion: Evil dictator who commits mass genocide on his people in Iraq. A large amount of terror networks operating in lots of different places and attacking American civilians on American soil. Post-invasion: No evil dictator who commits mass genocide on his people in Iraq. A large amount of terror networks have concentrated their efforts into one single country which is easier to fight and are attacking American troops who are able to defend themselves instead of American civilians who are slaughtered.

The iPhone
Those simple tasks don't require two fingers. Some of the features that the multi-touch display currently use are things like, in the Photo App, you can place to fingers on a photo and move them closer together to make the picture small, and spread them out to make them bigger. You should watch the Expo to see how it works. The simple tasks like making a phone call only require one finger.

Do YOU believe in God?
Maybe he killed a squirrel. It said do not kill. It didn't limit that to humans. :o I would also like to point out that it does not use the word kill, it instead says "murder." Until killing squirrels becomes illegal, its not considered murder. :P

Have fun in hell. :lol: Ok maybe I'll post twice. I'm not as bad of a sinner as you think I am. So dont assume that im going to hell. Im Catholic and I go to confession often. But I think ive broken every commandment except the 1rst and the 3rd at least once. Commandment 6 says: "You shall not murder." ...Do I have enough to reason to say that I'm slightly worried? :P Commandment 6 says though shall not have sex outside of marriage. Commandment 5 says though shall not kill. I have never killed people but i've beat the crap out of some and made fun of countless people. I urge you to take out a Bible and read it. Here you go:
