Middle East. Same crap different day. The locale just changes peridocally. Been like this for how long? Since the beginning of time. What makes you think our "high quality" leaders will do anything but pour more money and lives at it. Let the leaders fight. I'll bet that would slow things down when the rich cowards have to fight for their own personal survival. Just a thought.

We have a Navy we pay good money for. They have to float their boats somewhere. Why not the Gulf area in question. When will this administration grow some cojones? When you have the kind of fire power we do then flaunt it every now and then. Don't pick up your skirts and run just because a punk wants to bring his toys out in to a public area and tells you to leave.

Leon should tell Benjamin to bomb Iran now before the U.S. beats them to it. But no, Leon would rather publicize his own incompetence by talking to newspaper reporters instead of receiving training from competent past defense secretaries.

If they are building a nuclear bomb, they'll regret the day. Because, no one will accept the Middle East has built it and they don't have one.

The reason sanctions won't impact their nuclear course is because these sanctions don't hurt the upper class.
