...Actually I knew that - where the pic's were from - BUT screw'm. I don't know how much you've dealt w/ Arabs. They understand one, & one thing only: might. I went to school w/ them; I've been in business w/ them; I've had a Lebanese partner - whom I thought was as a brother. I'm part Lebanese. Syrian actually as part of Syria was hacked off to become Lebanon - in a number of ventures. Never forget they are first & foremost out for themselves...the singular. Nothing else counts. Not even other Arabs. It's in the blood: some of it in their sand. The constant strife. Today it's the West. Yesterday it was the tribes. Tomorrow? Again, you must realize they are like the Chinese - they take the long view. And again, you must realize the arrogance of their view that they & only they, are the "chosen". That "infidel" thing is the underpinning of their psyche...& it's real. Very real. I say: fuck'm. Kill 'em all & let Allah sort'm out!!! ...& I guarantee Iran is trying to make "the bomb"...& will if possible, eradicate Israel...& by extension, The West. That means ME!!!...& my country. I say: no. Take them out now, while we can.

The bigger question is: if we do challenge Iran, do we - the US - have the will to do what is necessary? My humble answer is: no...based on the past 50 years & our politically correct, media salving "Overlords."
