Which is fair enough, playing games with semantics is something I dislike too, unfortunetally there aren't many sucessful politicians who don't.
The implication of the question: "Were the 7/7 bombers motivated by Iraq?" however does have some fairly obvious implications and they're not ones I'm entirely happy with. I'd like Iraq to be judged on events in Iraq and not the bombings in London.
I dislike the idea of attacking the issue from the side, it seems equally dishonest.
