In Six years ( 2001 through 2007) the United States will most likely be warring with and setting up longterm infrastructure in three nations (Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran). On the horizon loom Syria and later, North Korea.
Two questions for you
First, will we be leaving these countries once we have settled peace? Our longterm military bases say no.
Second, will this trend continue? Will the US tackle five countries per decade for the next 50 years? is this not an attempt for world domination? If not, what is?
