:0) Hello Snowshoe, No, I am not feeling any bull horns in my backside due to my shorts on housing. The shorts on housing is like a fine wine, to be aged, added to, layered by months, and then served up one day.
And I didn't know I was taunting. I am simply fearful that all is not priced in.
As to basing (a) near water, (b) on empty space, (c) away from populations ... I am sure the desert is full of such places, but perhaps not as plentiful when simultaneously true.
How many hundreds of thousands of such troops will be based so. According to Stratfor, enough to take out Iran, Syria, and Saudi Arabia, and keep the space. Given the problems in Iraq, is taking out and keeping all of them remotely realistic?
Stratfor assumes that all remain static, geopolitically and tactically, to be arranged as they dream it up.
No, I fear not all will line up as Stratfor wishes, because the complexities simply are not that straightforward.
<<what happens in the populated areas after we pull out?>>
We know this already:
(a) politicians will get killed
(b) older people will fear
(c) younger people will do what younger people do
(d) kids will get no education, or killed, or turn into more young people
(e) ...
