We run 2 of the 3 countries that I mentioned. Once we leave them, all hell will break loose. It makes no difference if we leave tomorrow or in 10 yrs from now- whats going on now in the mid-east is like childs play compared to what will probably happen in the future. I hate to say it.. but it's hard not to have a grim look on things.

We did all we could do for iraq... they had the elections and chose their system of governemnt... they need to take control. We have 130k plus/minus troops in Iraq along with a couple of hundred thousand contractors... It's time to start pulling out. Theres nothing else to do there. Our troops can't be the 'Police Department' forever in Iraq.

We don’t claim territory anymore, just like we don’t declare war anymore. It’s archaic overkill. /s
