hidden threat is with more fed deficits, when US$ is weak
so many threats
like higher crude oil prices, if/when the war does not end quickly

I recall a line in Civil War history
they expected the Confederate South to be defeated in three weeks
it took about three years, I believe

we are focusing too much on a quick decapitation of Soddomy
instead, we should look to the warnings from AlQaeda
e.g. Yemen attack on French tanker
e.g. Chechen attack on Russian movie theatre
e.g. Qatar attack on US soldier
e.g. Bali nightclub destroyed

AlQ achieved 200,000 to 1 damage with WTC
I expect more of the same in the Islamic world

funny how European experts and leaders have a 180-degree opposite outlook on both the brevity of an Iraqi war and the costs involved

we are delusional in the USA
since when will tanks and jet fighters get the job done?
they didnt do shit in NYCity on 9/11
F16 were shiny and clean on the ground at the time
