#1 Burns said that the United States "caused disarray" in Iraq by invading the Arab country in 2003 which is now causing the incidents like the beheading of Foley.

Total rubbish! There's a 'cause belli' alright, and it involves any action on the international stage that can be blamed, even remotely on the U.S.

#2 the Israeli pounding of these innocent Paleostinians

Kinda high lights his viewpoint, no?

Amazing how innocent folk keep shooting rockets at kindergartens.

#3 Yeah, because the west is chomping at the bit to occupy Iraq again. That doesn't pass the most basic smell test.

#4 No, sending in US ground forces to re-occupy Iraq is the absolute last resort for Obama-the-Globalist - his priority for the time being is to empower Shia Iran as the Principal = US- style "Co-Superpower", or one of them, in future OWG Global Fed Union, e.g. Persian Gulf Union, Muslim/Islamic Union, etc.

Setting up the Union(s) both FOR COOPERATION, AS WELL AS COMPETITION, e. g. Vlad = Putinist Russia versus the Bammer + USA.

#5 Good luck with that...800 neckbeards occupied northern Iraq in less than a week, chasing away a million men Shia army And Iran has not lifted a finger.
They just proved their impotence and that they dont matter...their "nuclear program" is just bluff, just like Saddam's Weapons of Mass destruction.
