I understand where David's coming from...he's too early out on this. There will be civil wars before the territory gets redefined from when the British drew the lines and all the mucking up interference in the ME.

David is right for the long haul, imho, from reading about the area, as to what will eventually come, but I'm with you Minstrel. Get the HELL OUTTA THERE! We CANNOT AFFORD to be Colonial Britain no matter how much Bush and Blair wish for "their" new World Order.

Wasn't that Poppy's phrase? the "New World Order." Wasn't that what Kissinger and his PNAC Crew were about doing? Throw out PNAC and get the hell out. Every day we are there increases more threats for US citizens at home and abroad.

In this "global economy" how is it good for business when Americans no long feel safe traveling overseas or at home? I'm tired of the "fear factor" and endless War Mongering by this hideous group.
