Hi Greg, nice to hear from you. This is how I see it:

When Kwait was liberated, we had 10 years of boom. That was because we had to rebuild the country, and they paid for it with oil. Most of the windfall went to the US companies. 30 percent of the contracts had to be share with other NATO comapnies for their help in the First Golf War.

Unfortunately, Bush Sr. lost the elections before the country feels the boom, and Clinton got the credit for it.

Bush will do it this year, regardless what others say, he is courgeous and has balls under him. Once Sadam goes, and I forsee that to be a quick job, Bush has two years and teh economy has two years to recover. He will be re-elected.

In the Second Golf War, only US and UK are taking the risks, so other NATO countries will be cut off from reconstruction of Iraq, that will cost more than 1 trilion dollars.

Iraq will become friendly nation, and we will have another 10 years of prosperity. Iraq will pay with cheap Oil and their be friendly Gov. in place ,maybe under King Hussein's grand son. (the great grand son of Sherif Ali! You still remember the 7 Pillars of Wisdom? gg)

Iran will be caught between Afghanstan and Iraq, two friendly nations. Then Jeb Bush 10 years from now, when he is elected, will invade Iraq, using Iraq as a base. Then we will have another 10 years of prosperity!! Simple horse sense. GGG
