- The EU and NATO collapse

Why would this be a good thing? (The EU collapse specifically)

Israeli / Palestine conflict resolved

I think there is one way this can happen. The US tells Israel we don't think its worth the risk to support them any longer except maybe the monetary aid. No weapons or intelligence for example, start to pull away. Israel gets scared and starts negotiating and stops the aggression. In lieu of this, I think the Israel Palestinian conflict escalates.

I think the economic picture is picking up for technology btw so all is not doom and gloom for me. I want a different president though. If Blair gets ousted from the UK maybe he wants the job. We like Blair here. Time to come and buy your house in SV btw, lots of decent bargains now.

Wouldn't that be grand. I hope you are right, but I think it's going to be a longer road than 12 or even 18 months. And I think the U.S. may experience terrorist attacks of the same or greater scale than what occurred on 9/11 from the Islamic people who supposedly have a peaceful religion.
