Now we aren't afraid to flex to show our muscles. Long story short Iraq was a brillant move for current US policies, doctrines, and interests. By going to Iraq we sent a clear message to all the asshats of the world, don't fuck with us in anyway shape or form, don't question our shit, we are top dog. I think the message worked, looking at the message sent by Iraq and "the war on terror" places like Iran, Syria, N. Korea, and Libya have all gotten spooked and have showed many signs of improvement (maybe not so much N. Korea as far as improvement but they are definently scared).
If this is indeed the case..which I would not have a problem with because I enjoy the luxuries of living in the uS...why not put that on the front page instead of all this fake terrorism flag waving stuff.
If we are zipping up our boots, talk that language instead of breeding a nation full of ignorant Aaron Brown-Wolf Blitzer immitators.

Secondly...where does Wolfwitz' real allegiance lie? Here in the US or elsewhwere?
