I do not even know what you just said. Incoherance is not good fodder for conversation.

The US should do absolutely nothing. Israel can take care of herself. MAD is the best policy.

If they feel threatened by Aminthejihad they can do something about it.

Jesus Mary and Joseph...I'm agreeing with the anti Goldwater, or am I the anti Bla Bla?

Anyway...

Isreal is by far the most technologicaly advanced Middle Eastern country, it has more nukes than any of it's rivals combined. It's intelligence operatives look like arabs, speak arabic, and dedicate thier entire lives to long term counter intel assignments living among thier enemies. They run circles around American intel and know how, what, where, and why at all times in thier region.

Isreal can take care of herself for sure.

What I'm saying is if you are supposedly attacking nations in the Middle
East because of the international threat posed by radicalized Islamic terror
Saudi Arabia (home of the 911 hijackers and extremist Wahhabi Islam) or
Iran are higher on the list than Iraq (who was actually a bitter enemy of
Iran).

And Iran is actually a bitter enemy of al-Qaeda....

Well thats my overall impression of the Middle East, it's a complex web
of "who hates who" that isn't neatly defined by national borders.

Lowering the blunt hammer of US might on Iraq solved nothing except
a burning Neocon desire to get Saddam.

See, being a Neo-con is not so bad.

Yeah, they apparently passed a bill permitting drilling in the most difficult (= costly) places away from the zone where the richest oil deposits are.

Just like a friggin' Democrat to fuck it up.

And no one thinks it was accidental.

The worse part is that they want us to believe, and to praise them for, doing nothing.
