Short and sweet, and to the point. Sometimes you don't even have to say it, they say it for you. This might be a little farfetched, but increasing the troop strength in Afghanista and maintaining the troop levels in Iraq gives the US two fronts to attack Iran if the Isrealis should bomb. Just a thought.

Three guess on who that won't be. The same crew that didn't get the last laugh in Vietnam.
