Another reason that Bush is treading lightly in the region. He, and his team, know that this problem will not be solved in a few months. Furthermore, they realize that the US armed forces might be called upon to liberate several more countries, including Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. To liberate all these countries simultaneously would require a huge standing army, which the US does not possess. Better to liberate these countries one at a time, turn them into allies, and husband resources for the next one.

We can do that with Syria -- it IS 10% Christian and the ruler is a new Assad AND a Secular ruler, not a Muslim fanatic. For Iran, the popular feeling is AGAINST the ayatollahs -- so we may yet see a free Iran -- of it's OWN ACCORD.

Saudi A is the source of all funding for all muslim terror groups and Pakistan is the training camp for the terrorists. IRq was a bypass -- destroy (NOT liberate) Pakistan and we have eliminated the training grounds and the source of weapons (including nuclear weapons) of the terrorists. Elimintate the Saud family and we eliminate the funding of terror groups. to Win the WOT we must hit Pakistan and Saudi A or we win nothing.
