I agree with the facts stated in the links you have provided Tesco. They aren't particularly suprising, although as always it is interesting reading. But I disagree with your analysis of them, which is also not all that suprising.

And Iraq's ties with 'terrorism' are Groups that could hurt their regional foes. Such as Mujahedeen-e-Khalq , Kurdistan Workers� Party and some palestinian Groups such as the islamist hamas and the abu nidal organization. And reportedly channeled money to families of Plaestinian suicide bombers.

From what I did read, Iran is a nightmare for strategist planners. This is the ONLY country in this region whose population is not US haters, but the leadership is. Then the problem is shall US let Iran take the time to make its revolution and throw out the islamic junta, or shall the military help them to put them out of office throught the Irak method ?

The answer lies in both cooperation versus radical islam (In Iran, some say Arabic Islam) and nuclear power control.

It seems Iran decided from the Irak lesson that only nuclear weapons can keep them out of harm's way.

For the Palestinian problem, stop making me laught. Since the 80's, all arab states took a vocal posture and continuously did nothing for them (best exemple : Saudia Arabia). Palestinians are political tools. Rethoric and false promise are all they had from Arab states. Shall I say it will stay that way for the forseable future ?

Hey, we almost forgot what started this thread in the first place...

Why Didn't Amin Rot and Die in Jail?

Indeed.
I rejoice of his death and regret he did not had to face man's justice.
However I wish him good luck facing highter courts, and also rejoice at that thought.

The military has plans on the books to invade Canada, Mexico, France, Germany, you name it. Lots of people work on these plans all the time. But few are ever used. And with the new light force concept, all are being reworked.

I can't wait for the Freedom of Information Act to kick in on that lot. That'll be some very entertaining reading, I'll bet, and make for some wonderfully misunderstood and misleading headlines.

Almost related (though not to the original topic), what I'd really like to see is a plan for a land invasion of the U.S. I don't care whose, I would just love to hear how they'd pull it off, what with "a rifle behind every blade of grass" (Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, 1941).
