Nothing you can say at this point will change my mind. I do not like your politics. The US is engaged in a war on terror that encompasses the entire world, but centralized in the ME. If the US has to take on Iran, followed by Syria and later down the road Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and even the UAE, SO BE IT! War is not for the faint of heart. We should never kowtow to the enemy because they hold access to oil over our heads. We should never appease the Islamic nationstates, who just a short time ago sponsored terrorism, gave cover to Osama Bin Laden and condoned killing Americans. The theocratic sheikdoms of these Islamic nationstates shouldn't be trusted in the long term. And they shouldn't be fully trusted in the short term either. The US will lose the WOT if we lose sight of the big picture. The Islamic world hates America and our way of life. You don't understand that and never will. This isn't a game of diplomacy. This is a matter of life and death for the USA and westerm civlization.
