Report Says Iraq War Increasing Terrorism Story aired: Thursday, February 22, 2007
A new study says the war in Iraq is creating terrorists out of foreign fighters who will then pose a new threat when they return to their home countries. The study comes to the conclusion that Iraq War critics have been making for some time: the war is causing terrorism rather then stopping it.
We speak with Peter Bergen, a research fellow at the Center on Law and Security at the NYU School of Law and senior fellow at the New America Foundation, who co-authors the study.
