I call BS, Titan6. We're heading for mushroom clouds in this asinine escapade of conquering known oil reserves and insuring Israel will be dominant even though they are the third largest nuclear power and don't require our fighting in their stead.
Do you honestly think Gog and Magog (Russia and China) will sit idly while we "conquer" the Middle East, the Horn of Africa and the Caucasus??? If you do you're truly intellectually strapped.
