Yeppers:

The complexity of countries, tribes, anti American groups, terrorist groups and Islamists is a very complex web. We must resist the temptation to go in there. Trying to take them out is nuts. There are 10 to replace every one and that has always been true from day one and easy to see. Well easy for some.

We have enemies on both sides in Syria and Iraq. There is nothing we can do unless we see a clear path. And we must do it in concert with Europe. They are in more danger from the ME than we are.

So far Obama is doing exactly the right thing i.e. trying to figure out the best path. I hope he keeps doing it.

Mccain wants to go off half cocked and every single informed person I have seen interviewed like Fareed Zakaria said that is naïve to the max. I agree.

Iraq should have been divided up into three counties a hundred years ago: Kurds in the north,
shia in the south and Sunnie in the west. But the west created the boundaries.

Now the people in the ME are doing it themselves. The west divided up those countries. Let the people who live there divide them up.
