This is the reason for the real urgency in getting extracted from Iraq. We have been at war with Iran since the beginning and now we are going to take it to them. However, one way or another, I believe that Syria will be taken out first so that Iran will be completely isolated.
This "war" has always been about Iran from the beginning, but our leaders don't want to level with us.
I couldn't agree more. When they are taken out, Israel will probably play a role in keeping them honest, in the sense that Syria will be in a bad position when after we deal with them, and may be more worried about Israel than playing footsie in Iraq when we turn our attention to Iran.
