#1 To do so would admit the utter failure of President Obama's entire Presidency from his "We're sorry!" world tour to his gutting of our military, to his inept 'reset' of our foreign policy to his bumbling implementation of pretty much everything to his destruction of our economy.

The media won't do that under any circumstances. When war DOES break out, it'll be "Bush's fault!"

#3 I think a drift into failed states is more likely. Egypt will be next, as the price of wheat goes ever upward, bread riots aren't too far away.

#6 Until someone cares about wars in Africa or South America, I will not care about wars in the Middle East. Have fun boys.

#7 Some axioms: long time dictators always go down hard. Short time democratic pollster-driven politicians cannot get anything actually done, and noone forgets atrocities - ever. So yes, its wack a mole time again to some degree in the ME, and best if they just kept it local. I would worry more about the build up in subs in the Pacific myself.
