#1 Sigh. If only the outlook for Afghanistan was half as rosy... They just can't seem to let go of their "culture"... Can you say doomed?

Re: Iraq... This is really encouraging, though it's claimed to be insufficient for the GC's "plans"... They may have to live within a budget - a novel concept in Arabia. There is real hope for Iraq in the near-term if we don't have to hump the entire load. We are going to be very busy...

Iran, being in the same lucky boat as Iraq in terms of resources, but far ahead in terms of what the general population will support and their lack of the deep religious and ethnic chasms, should recover much quicker and cost us far less in the aftermath, eh?

The NorKs have wabbit and roe deer farms, not to mention a zinger of an editorial staff - but hey, they'll be SKor's problem...

Lessee, what natural resources does SyrLeb have?
