no not really. we shouldn't hold iraq responsible for the actions of a few saudi arabian individuals.

If we aren't proactively dominating the world, or subverting it through espionage, and doing it in a way that looks really great.

We lost the game.

A big part of the problem as well is that: The Establishment Will Never Say No to a War.

As for Israel — which is, of course, the real motivation for most neoconservative dreams of controlling the Middle East — it can surely defend itself at this point. Israel has massive military, technological, intelligence, and economic advantages over its neighbors, and, unlike Iran, also has nuclear weapons, refuses to admit it, and will not sign (again unlike Iran) the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. And the Israelis need U.S. troops to occupy the Middle East permanently as well? Why? It’s high time the U.S. called their bluff.

If we want to be able to accomplish things we need to reign in military spending.

A prolonged shut down could cement a lack of confidence by investors in US Bonds...
