Iraq and Afghanistan are part of a pincer attack on Iran and Afghanistan helps serve to encircle China. The parts we don't hear about are the (nonviolent) NORTHCOM takeover of Canadian airspace and CIA-sponsored "velvet revolutions" in the former Soviet Republics, in which numerous US military bases are installed. There's weird stuff going on in Paraguay, too, I've seen very little indicating the purpose of or other related operations.

There's a lot more military manuevering going on here than just Iraq and Afghanistan and all the "al Qaeda is the new Emmanuel Goldstein" propaganda. I have no idea what they're planning to do, but I highly suspect it involves getting the US into a phenomenal amount of trouble.
