Opposition to the war in Iraq was thought to have been the swing issue for voters. The Bush administration’s misguided “war on terror” mired in the military occupation of Iraq has created a number of critical problems for the nation that will likely reverberate for years to come, including the staggering economic costs of the war, the incitement of new waves of anti-Americanism generating more recruits to groups like al Qaeda, the alarming assault on civil liberties at home, and the damage done to U.S. relations among allies abroad. Opinion polls now show that a majority of Americans oppose the war in Iraq. The Bush administration is facing deepening divisions in its own party over the war and Democrats have seized the opportunity to push for change. The oversight responsibility of the new Congress, through hearings and investigations, should shed more light on some of the ill-effects of the war just mentioned. However, even as policy analysts turn toward the future and sort through the myriad problems, one concern likely to be overlooked is the potential impact on domestic terrorism. 2013-10-02T03:13:14Z 2013-10-02T03:13:14Z 2007 Book 978-0-511-28950-7 https://scholar.dlu.edu.vn/thuvienso/handle/DLU123456789/35669 en application/pdf Cambridge University Press
