Do the jehadis want Bush in power?

Looking back at the last five years, I'm beginning to suspect that the jehadis want Bush to stay in power.

He's doing their job for them all by his lonesome, isn't he? They just need to keep a majority of the American population scared of the terrorists so that he has a free hand to do whatever he wants.

He has killed the American economy. Jobs are going elsewhere, prices rising, people are dissatisfied. If I'm not mistaken, China owns 60% of Americas debt. From the world's strongest, most independent economy ten years ago, the US is now utterly dependent on their closest rival, China.

He has effectively turned a respectable fraction of the world's nations against him, what with his hypocrisy and double standards. Nobody wonders whether America harbours imperialist designs. The question is quite simply "Who's the next target?". No wonder the terrorists are sitting tight. They've understood that in this age, wars aren't fought with guns but with economics. Gun and bombs are incidental, tools to create fear, which in turn is just another way of directing economies.

Someone I know pointed out that historically, when an empire possesses military might disproportionate to its economic might, then war is sure to follow. Looks like he was right.
