If this was the old days; we'd have nuked whatever country destroyed our skyscrapers, right? Pretty simple stuff.

You can't talk about global security without protecting oil in an oil-based economy. I'm amazed at people who disdainfully say we are fighting for oil like it's a bad thing. Unless you're riding a horse and burning wood, you have lot of interest in keeping the oil taps flowing. As for lining the pockets of yada, yada, - he certainly didn't invent that. That's how the power works everywhere in the world throughout history. BTW, my nephew is a Marine, has been there, and is going back-> I hope he stays safe. >> Thanks, me too.
