Happy New Year, Tobago Jack. I can't understand why "withdrawing from Iraq and Afghanistan and leaving them as failed states are not real options." The US public, including most of the very rich capitalists, will demand retreat out of that battlefield. The Democrats will come into power with just such a mandate. They will proclaim the obvious, i.e. that those ARE failed states and the situation is incurable by US might. They will blame it all on mistakes by Bush and Co, which is accurate enough for their purposes. There are just 2 years and 20 days left for this stupid war. As for saving gold, so far oil and real estate outside of the US have done at least as well as gold. I suppose you are judging that when the US dollar's image starts to crack, that the rush will turn to gold rather than oil/non-US. real estate. Why? I'm not saying you are wrong. I just don't understand the rationale. Seeker of Truth
