Yes, going into Iraq gave us “flanking positions” on both sides of Iran. Now we’ve essentially lost both. It was a brilliant strategic move. Syria is a lesser problem, though serious. The Pakis have both China and India to help contain them.

Remind me again how many of the 9/11 terrorists were from Iran and how many were from Saudi?
