Then your contention is that your average jihadist in Iraq is smart?

The average jihadist will be of average intelligence by definition. Seriously though, they have leaders of at least moderate intelligence. The truly stupid ones wouldn't make it very far.

Besides I'm not denying the possibility, just acknowledging the idiocy of it. Whether Will should be on the ground in Iraq is a much different question than whether Harry should be. Just on the basis of succession alone.

And what do you base this on?

So the head people tell the poor people to go blow themselves and other people of their relegion up?

I guess I am missing something here?

Tom, as you can see, we're not talking about suicide bombers, but yes, the more elite terrorists send other people to accomplish that job. They're all about exploiting one-another's talents and values for the sake of their cause.

It's pretty sad when your best value to a political cause is as an explosive device.
