Fallon is no dove, just another warmonger. He says the U.S. in the region will "move to more of an air and naval presence..." We know what than means - more 1,000 lb. bombs dropped on human beings by those super-brave pilots sitting in the safety of their cockpits, and in no danger of hearing the screams far below. Who can wonder why the rest of the world despises America?

The best part is Fallon's declaration: "A priority for me is to set a national strategy for the world and then work down to the [Middle East] region".

A strategy FOR THE WORLD??? The arrogance simply beggars belief....

I don't understand what win in Iran would be. At what cost to us. Iran has nearly a million man army. Dare I say well rested Army. The US would have to do a quick and completely devistating of Iran. We simply don't have boots on the ground.

As far as China is concern. There in lies a huge key as to why we haven't done it and may rely on Israel. Remember China has the US by it's nads. We borrow way to much on a daily bases. If China decided to sell of our debt to the lowest bid. We would be in even more serious trouble.

Israel is relying on the US to back them up. If you in the middle of the night Israel decided to hit Iran. Look for the response to happen in Iraq because unfortunately there are some easy US targets.

I think it's all talk. I don't think that Israel will hit Iran because of the serious dangers that would come with it. The US won't because we really can't afford to upset Russia and China's flow or oil. It just talk that McCain will use for the election.
