War is like a grass fire -- easy to start, but tough to control if the wind comes up. Thanks for the post -- it is consistent with what many middle east experts seem to be saying.

>>the devil one knows is better than the devils one does not. << Too real. Interesting how the focus is on US interests, but it does go along way to put on the table the ramifications of detonating a bomb there because you think there may be a bomb there.<G> This is like forest fire control.( someone else referred to grass fire ).You start a fire to burn out areas that MAY be a potential threat, then a strong wind comes up and causes the bigger fire you were trying to circumvent. Got water bombers?
