The House of Saud, Kuwait, and the other "friendly", peace-loving nations, can pick the USA or the "Axis of Evil". There is no "no man's land" left in the world, including Europe. There is no middle ground. If they choose war against the USA, God help them, because there will be no refuge for them in this world.
This does not mean that the USA will send forth imperial armies to conquer the world. It does mean that the USA will exercise its prerogative to attack its enemies, and the enemy's fellow travelers, when and where needed to protect its citizens, and minimize losses to its military forces.
If that means rolling tanks over Riyadh, and liberating any peace loving Saudi's who might exist from the House of Saud, so be it. Standing between the USA and Iraq, Syria, or others in the expanding "Axis" is unheathly, and they will reap the consequences of such a choice. If "victory" requires economically isolating and blockading socialist European countries such as France, who insist on impeding our war effort (thus guaranteeing more American deaths), then we do that. We reward our friends, bring terror and death to our enemies, and if need be, punish our enemy's friends. We fight to win, and we play for "keeps".
If the USA must conquer territory in the execution of the war, in my book, that land becomes a territory of the USA for eternity. We don't seek "tribute" in war, but we should exact a price for American blood and treasure. Enemy lands that we must spill American blood to conquer become new territory of the USA. We did not want this war, we did not start this war, and we did not in any way cause this war, but we will win it. We must win it, because we have no "big brother" who will save us if we fail. There are very few nations in this world who would not enjoy the demise of the USA, the rape, pillage, and death of her citizens, should the USA fail to defend her citizens.
To those who read this and think I'm a nutcase, I recommend you reevaluate the ease with which a million US citizens can be killed with:
A politically correct foreign policy by irresponsibly naive "I feel SO good about me" liberals is no longer survivable! The consequence of failure in this war will make life in the USA hell forever.
Of course we should work with the Arab countries, and any other nation that will support our self-defense without timidity or deception. Roll over them otherwise.
And oh, by the way, CIC, DOD, and Congress, please don't forget to bring about four or five mothballed Carrier Battle Groups, a half-million Soldiers, several heavy mechanized divisions, USAF air wings, and other "cold war" assets and resources back on line. We're going to need them sooner than later, for our minimum defense.
