How has bombing Iraqis made you safer?

Please provide details of just how exactly you were made safer by the war in Iraq. Do not provide over-simplistic generalizations, or umptions; for example, it is absurd to ume that a "terrorist" in Iraq fighting for Iraqi freedom, would somehow be able to float across the Atlantic Ocean and invade America. In addition, make sure your answers include a comparative cost-benefit ysis which examines how the cost of the Iraq War might otherwise have been spent on improved health-care, and other methods of making you safer. In addition, make sure to note that none of the 9/11 highjackers were from Iraq.
