Very overgeneralizing. I would say, this means two things; it is probably an incorrect worldview, and worse, it is an undiplomatic one which pushes very immoral wars as only outcome to relieve the pressure. (and calling them anything like 'axis of evil' is just plain stupid)

I am not sure what we are fighting in Iraq, but sure it is not all Al Queada. Some of it is probably civil war too.

I agree, i have heard some pretty convincing stuff that the old Iraqi govt tried to keep groups like that out, rather then harboring them.
