11. Increased terror cooperation from Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
Whatever, most of the insurgents in Iraq are either Saudi or come through there, and many in Afghanistan are Paki, and find refuge there.
12. Increased global alliance with India to attack terrorism and counter weight China.
Let's hope, because in the next five years I think we're going to find out just how much we can rely on India for support against an increasingly aggressive China.
enough for now
Nope, we still have Iran and Syria to take care of. And as far as I know there are still way to many koranimals still breathing and killing innocent people. I would say I'm a neocon. I want the U.S. public to see the WOT for what it really is. It is not WWIV it is the Crusades version 13. And this time the West is going to win. China should not be dealt with until they cease being the worst human rights violators in the world. I could waste a lot of space recounting their record. And now that we have conservative leadership in the federal government, the economy, national security, and the state of our nation is in good hands, and must remain that way.

11. Saudi Arabia/ Pakistan
Both countries were not just doing this prior to WOT-- they were doing it much more. In fact, we were funding it ourselves as a strategy. As a comparative matter, the situation is better under neo con policy.
12. India/ China
I would choose India over China any day. They are and will be a great ally. Their economy will surpass China. They are the new super democracy of the 21st century. They have our back by getting China's back.
Iran and Syria
More neocon brilliance here. We have these great base locations for attacking them at any time. The names of these bases are Afghanistan and Iraq. Take a look at a map. It looks much better now than it ever did. We are battle tested and actively deployed. There will be no warm up-- just instant gratification whenever we want to deliver it.
China is horrible but I think capitalism and christianity will continue to unravel them. India is a solid counterweight. North Korea blew it for China by virtually assuring Japanese re-armament which throws another massive counterweight against China. South Korea grows increasingly conservative as well.
Another neo con achievement of Bush is the building of foreign military forces to assist our future coalitions. Canada is one such example.

Not exactly true. Most of the insurgents are Iraqis. Less than 10% of the insurgents are foreigners.
