In this war we want to tackle one scumbag Islamofascist regime at a time.

Great point, although the myth of Midddle Eastern unity is overblown.

Iran: Not Arabic, Persian, and keeping with your theme, ripe for the plucking. Over 50% of population under age 25 and really chafing under Islamic theocracy. They want modernity NOW. Tick Tock.

Syria: yesterday reports the government sentenced a political reformist to 5 years. Pretty bold move for the reformist, in a country that used to have no dissent. Tick Tock

I don't mention Iraq; foregone conclusion. Saudi Arabia: 11% of our imports and declining. See below.

Only remaining wild card worth serious concern is Egypt. They won't stand alone after the dominos start to fall.

Libya: effectively neutered by Reagan. All others: see domino principle above. IMHO
