Default Re: Rambling thoughts about the US military

Iran, Syria, and Pakistan aren't a threat to the US. Are they going to invade us? Are they going to stop selling oil to us? No. They are a threat to Isreal, but not America.

Iran, Syria, and Pakistan are threats to our interests. Iran has tons of oil and could easily turn around and sell tons of it to potential "enemies" for cheap. They could also completely disrupt a region on an epic scale. Pakistan is an area of concern because they could snap at any moment and start a war with India. It is also possible that India snaps, who knows.

I think all of these are likely without some U.S. influence.
