This will end up driving oil prices up which plays right into the hands of the "green energy" kooks; who will, then, use it to push for their agenda - costing the taxpayer trillions of dollars chasing a not-ready-for-prime-time dream. What a mess we've fallen into.

I see a civil war coming that Iran will exploit which will, in turn, create a catastrophic mess and will result in us heading back in there. All of this could have been avoided if the administration had started negotiating early enough. Instead we are going to suffer in the long run for a politicallly motivated pull-out designed to get the president re-elected rather than achieving the intended outcome of the conflict- a stable and democratic Iraq and a more stable and contained Middle East.

[QUOTE=Horitexan;4695616]a stable and democratic Iraq and a more stable and contained Middle East. [QUOTE]
Not gonna happen. The country of Iraq was orginally set-up by the League of Nations post WWI with no regard to cultural boundaries. The two cultures have hated each other for centuries and no table talk is going to correct the issue. Yes, Al Qaeda is fueling the fire but there have been coups and civil war every 10-20 years since the current geo-political borders were set. Just my two cents.
