There will be war...except DOD already said

[nadinbrzezinski]

There won't be...over Iran. The saber ratling is over...as predicted.

I am sure somebody pointed out there is no army to do no fighting and the D word came in conversation...

Phew, don't have to eat my shoe.

1. How many drones can dance on the head of a pin?

And how many are available to start another war that the U.S. would then be hard-pressed to continue?

2. Somehow I doubt you will see us action in Iran

Plenty of noise to come in the Arab League and the UN, but hardly war.

The saber ratling is over.

3. Nadin, if you haven't seen it I wanted to draw your attention to a little...

...something-something I found yesterday that hasn't been reported on yet, to my knowledge. Chech http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c112:H.+Res.+429:">this out and stew on the implications for a few minutes, if you would. I'd love to know what you think it might mean.

Oh they're very quick with that legislation when they want to be.

4. I told my mother that the republicans want to expand

Their influence. This is that. The Monroe doctrine for the 21st century...of course, once again what army?

It is also very political as in see the new threat is...Mexico.

5. I agree. Any thing that comes out of the House has a rethug majority

behind it and is suspect.

IMO there are three big reasons we will not actually go to war with Iran. First - with what army? Second - Iran supplies EU with a lot of their oil and Russia also sides with Iran. Finally, overstretch - we do not have the money to do this and China who also gets their oil from Iran is not going to back us. If we dare to take this step, my guess is that it will bring our own country down as fast as the Afghanistan war brought the USSR down.

Saber rattling is for election time only.
