Obviously we're not obligated to listen, but they can ask.

True. America will have to watch for heavy spin, though.
We need to stay focused.

Here is the scenario:

We attack but we don't go after the SCUDS in the west first and they launch them at Israel. Israel responds with heavy attacks and Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Kuwait tell us to get the hell out of their territory.

US vs Iraq becomes US vs Iraq, Iran, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait probably Turkey.....

AND the oil is cut off....

Would this be a good scenario or a bad one?
