Now you know where the term "Ugly American" comes from, and why people in other countries despise Americans. We Americans treat the rest of the world like it's our oyster to destroy, rebuild, and control. We are the big empire in the world now. Clean up Iran?!? I doubt it will be that easy. How do you think the Iranians feel about that idea? Iran is four times the size of Iraq, it has a well trained/well equipment standing army, it has a history of U.S. meddling. You really think we could just take over Iran like we supposedly did in Iraq?!? I say supposedly, because we can't even seem to secure the "green zone" in Baghdad. We don't control huge portions of Iraq. We will leave quietly no matter who wins in November and the American sheeple will just forget about it, as the next "crises" unfolds to divert their attention.
