The war on terror as Al Qaeda recruitment

James Taranto:

Time magazine reports that Iraq-based Jordanian terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi has been fantasizing about undertaking terrorist attacks inside the U.S., according to a captured "top aide" who's been singing. The most interesting detail:

> Al-Zarqawi's aide also revealed that his boss, after pondering the absence of attacks in the U.S. in recent years, concluded that a lack of "willing martyrs" was to blame.

So much for the old saw that the liberation of Iraq is a boon to al Qaeda recruitment.
