Or are they maybe looking for a job? Perhaps both, its hard to say for certain. <BR/>At any rate, I'm hoping the General's on the ground know what they are doing with these negotiations.<BR/>I think you are right about significant downsizing in Iraq this year, and an attack on Iran is imminent, and hopefully before they get nukes. <BR/>We must stop that, even if it means using tactical nukes to do so. <BR/>We can possibly do it with conventional, and I'm sure thats the first option.<BR/>We will have to be prepared at the Iraqi and Afghanistan borders,<BR/>should Iran decide to counterattack in those directions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
