On the first matter, indeed, you've got the last word! (LOL)

On the latter subject, have you seriously thought out the complications in the whole of the MidEast and the possibility the conflict could spread and wrech havoc on other nations? For example, Turkey's already got problems on three fronts not to mention domestic difficulties within its own nation.
