Poll question: Which Country Will The United States Invade In The Next Four Years? |
|
I think the PNAC crowd have shot their wad in Iraq but am sure others feel differently...

3. I think we will invade Iran in less than 6 months. I mean, while we are |
|
in the neighborhood, what the hell.

The Soviet Union collapsed, now it's our turn.
Fortunately Canada and Mexico don't seem to hate us, so our borders should be reasonably safe... unless we try to invade them.

23. Another vote for none... |
|
...since we'd have to leave somewhere we are already to pull it off, and I don't see that happening.
If Bush wanted a draft, 2002-3 was the time when he could have gotten it, not now. And without a draft, we don't have the bodies.
He may drop the odd bomb on someone, but he's got his war, and it's the only one he's getting.
The Uniformed Services will see to that.

Gotta find all them WMDs that supposedly got smuggled there.
6 months, another 1,000 troop deaths, and another 10,000 civilian deaths later...
Oops! Well, we can't find them here either! Shazam! :shrug:
Later,

7. Troop deaths are always regrettable of course |
|
but anyone who joins the all-volunteer military at this point has to know what they are getting into, not just college money.

8. Syria would be WAY more than 1000 troops dead |
|
Iran is the most likely target, and I say within 18 months...
ANY of these targets would make us WISH for only 1000+ dead...the casualties will be much more profound. And beleieve me, we will be going alone (MAYBE Britain but I doubt it) on all of them

24. Yep. The IDF will help, too, since this is to slake the PNAC's bloodlust |
|
Never underestimate how much the extremist reactionary pro-Israel-above-anything folks will do for their dreams.
More than oil or anything else, this is the prime motivator.

9. Iran. It's the ONLY reason my Persian sister-in-law voted for Kerry. |

She's a walking, talking Bushbot if you remove that.

15. Iran, they have a lot of oil. Syria has oil but less of it |
|
Invading North Korea would seriously piss off China and besides they already have many nukes.

could be by proxy (contras) but those people down there are getting entirely too independent. For their own good, I mean.

We'll just pull out of Iraq and let it go to hell like we did to Afghanistan.
