think, think, think...

"Iran is a very troublesome neighbor," she said on NBC's "Today" show. "Iran is prepared to fill the vacuum" if the U.S. leaves Iraq." - Condoleezza Rice no fuckin shit they are ready to pick up the slack. iran fought an 8 year war with iraq and couldnt win. thanks to the mighty united states doing all the heavy work to overthrow a working (and yes, often brutal) government, and implement a non-working government that has almost no real authority...now all iran has to do is act like a good neighbor and the iraqi people will jump right on-board. they may not even like iran, but in their eyes, iran is still better than the united states. also, bush is gonna cut 30,000 troops. wow! now hopefully we can have the sort of success we were having over there before we had to send in the 30,000 less than a year ago. we all know how well iraq was doing then.

so in the news there are reports of iran bombing villages in northern iraq. what happens if iran where to send a military into iraq? its not like iraq has a real army, and the one they do have is barely holding itself together. iraqs military force is the united states. who has the responsibility of defending iraq? with hundreds of billions of our tax money invested in the war there is no way the united states wont flex its muscle. if iran goes into iraq we will no longer be in a war of choice. its a war of necessity if iran is purposely blowing things up near american "peace keeping" soldiers. maybe thats the whole point of this war. i think the united states is picking a fight. war! war! war!
