HeX0rz, there is more than just iran to worry bout.....n. korea, iran, pakistan, syria, china, russia.....the first four are the hottest spots, but rest assured if something were to happen in n. korea, china will be backin them all the way....also don't forget, chaves from venesuala (sp) he acts all buddy, buddy now, but when fidel passes, i bet he'll make a move on cuba...just my .02 on that, then we won't make a move just as we did in the 60's because of russia.... it is all pretty much a chess game it seems, unfortunatly our gov. risk fine individuals such as scarecrow playing it....
bad thing is, as both of you have said we are spread thin, so we would put ourself in a checkmate if any of several "hot spots" were to flare up...
we have made many enemies trying to force democracy on other nations & people...or "trying to help them out" & trying to police the world....if we started paying more attention to our problems at home than that of our neighbors then we might not be where we are now....or we could be worse who knows, but as americans we are carring individuals for the most part & don't want our neighbor to suffer injustice.....there is cause to do certain things, such as be in afganistan searching for oisuckaone benbobbin (osama binladen), but intruding on a country under false pretenses as was done in iraq is wrong....we should have finished what we started the first time when it was just 10 years ago.....
anyhoo as scarecrow said i'll stop the rambling. there's a reason why they say you never talk about govt or religon.
