Woohoo, One Down, Two To Go!

Now that the mandate is clear for the next four years, what are your thoughts on the continuing war on terror?

 

[alchemize]

Can you add "sanctions followed by pre-emption if sanctions fail"?

I see diplomacy as worthless if there is no muscle behind it.

 

[jpeyton]

Added.

Militarily, we can't do squat. Economically, we can't do squat. Because of the state of the morale in this country, we can't do squat. We've laid our hands on the table, came up with a pair of deuces against a full house.

I can't imagine us actually invading North Korea pre-emptivly. They would put up a much harder fight than Iraq, and let's face it, tens of thousands of military deaths to prevent something that might never happen is NOT going to go over well.

Not all military options involve invading and nation building, ya know. How many carrier groups are being utilized in Iraq versus are available for other duty? Strategic bombers? Cruise missles etc.?

True, but we could've done that with Iraq...

TaDa!

They'll stike you right back if you hit them from air or cruise missles. North Korea will destroy South Korea and Iran will cause thousands of deaths in Israel and attack U.S bases around the gulf.

Iraq = easy
afghanistan = world war 2 weapons. a joke.

 

[cwjerome]

Just depends on if you want regime change.

 

[eclavatar]

Just like Clinton did... which accomplished absolutely nothing.

There will be no sanctions on Iran for the same reason none have been implemented against Sudan for their ongoing genocide; China won't allow it.
