How he feels about it, what he does about it...
Do I think that any other president would have gone hard against terrorists (terra)? Of course I do.
Do I think that any other president would have just suddenly done an about face on Afghanistan and gone after Iraq?
No, I don't.

After 9/11 it became quite clear that global terrorism would hit western countries anywhere, anytime and with great savagery.
Countries like Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lybia, North Korea are known to either help, harbor terrorits.
Afghanistan was the first target of the global war on terrorism, Iraq is the 2nd target, we will find out who is 3rd on the list by next winter.
I predict that North Korea will be next in line.
If those countries are left alone, then the next attack on a western country will not be a 3100 deaths attack but something a lot more grave.
