Re: Now you've confused me with the arithmetic. Are you talking about 150,000 Iraqis or 150,000 tsunami victims?

I'm talking about 150,000 tsunami victims --hence my choosing the name "wog":

Any full-scale attempt at destabilizing Iran will have much wider repercussions than the Iraq war... It won't be limited to the Persian Gulf. China and India, by signing "contracts-of-the-century" with Iran (worth respectively $100 and $40 billion), have already signalled that hurting Iran would be tantamount to hurting their interests.

Now, if the US recklessly attacked Iran I think that retaliatory strikes will hit US allies first. In Asia, a key US ally is Japan: all of Japan's energy supplies and most of its exports to Europe and the Mideast must go through Indonesian waters to the Indian Ocean and then up the Red Sea/Suez Canal to the Mediterranean.... Hence the need for the US to secure Muslim Indonesia.
