re: should avoid direct, large-scale military action in the Middle East

that is actually true but one can argue that once Saddam did not comply with US demands not going to war would be interpreted as weakness and it would backfire.

US should avoid the war not just in ME but everywhere but only if the price of the peace is not significantly higher than the price of the war.....

re: $108 a month for married members, less if they're single and more if they have more than one wife.

who can afford a wife let alone two on $108 per months? Sorry, just could not resist a joke....

But seriously women are not allowed to work and treated as property in some Muslim countries
