Erm, aren't you the same 240 that argues we should remain in Iraq, if only for their precious oil? Am I to assume you are an armchair oil bandit?
And just so you know, a whole lot more peoples' necks will be on the collective line if Iran points something nuclear at, let's say, Israel.
Bruce, the US needs to "manage" Iraqi oil to maintain our way of life.
You see, I am open about this fact - we need their oil to keep our style of life and to keep the rapidly arming chinese from getting it. You can't seem to admit that. It's the truth, as painful as it is.
Bruce, why would the US attack Iran for Israel?
Israel has a nice little army, their awesome air force, their own nukes, and they haven't done much to help us in iraq.
So why would we sacrifice American lives and dollars, so they don't have to? You've always gotten all froggy here, saying "they are our allies", but they are perfectly capable for fighting that war, seeing as we have our hands MORE than full without our other 2 wars.
