on backing terrorists

Cheney and Lieberman are attacking Lamont, who beat Lieberman in CT for wanting us to pull out of Iraq, saying such statements support terrorist. I respectfully disagree. It seems to me that the money we have spent in Iraq, which even the President admits, had no ties to the terrorists of 9/11 or other dates would be better spent in defending our transportation and shipping facilities from terrorist actions. Iraq has only created new terrorists for us to be concerned about.
