If you are paying attention, it's going to happen.

Take your pick from below. They are just waiting to blow up. We will not be able to keep all these threats/challenges from exploding.

Iran on the verge of nuclear weapon. We or Israel attacks. Shit can spiral out of control quick. Iran attacks the USA in the continental USA.
North Korea has nuclear weapons. They have paid unemployed Russian ballistic engineers to help them. They are now making progress. The kid needs to prove to the military he is as loco as they are. Shit can spiral out of control quick.
Pakistan has a coup or political instability and terrorists get a hold of one of their nuclear weapons. Shit can spiral out of control quick.
Syria draws us into a renewal of the cold war. Shit can spiral out of control quick.
The Saudi or Jordanian Kings get thrown out by their people.
Egypt turns to civil war and the hard liners win and disavow the Israeli/Egyptian treaty. Shit can spiral out of control quick.

thats the DOD's decision. The theory is tha since there is No real threat of a homeland invasion it's best to position our military resources where our enemies are located. Take it them. Don't sit and wait for them to attack.

Like they did on 9/11? There over here, because we were over there. So now we have to live in a garrison state instead. Sorry, doesn't work for me. I'd rather pull out of bases in hot spots and live the way we once did. Wouldn't you?

The globalists are taking over our govt and country. The enemy is inside.

Well, it may be strategy but the arguments you have used are the same as the Bush NeoCons.

Seems like every threat now days is "they could get a nuclear weapon" or "they're trying to get WMDs!" or "they want all Jews dead!". North Korea and Iran aren't gonna do a god damn thing.

Fear is used to control the masses.

OK, but what do I accomplish by being concerned? I don't have any influence at all over the potential events you listed. And I doubt any other member here does either. I don't understand the purpose of living in fear of something that you have zero control over. If you have additional info beyond "Shit could spiral out of control", that would be great. Otherwise I don't understand the scare tactics.

**patteeu** · 01-28-2013, 12:54 PM

Surely it's nothing a few soft, meaningless words and a bow or two can't fix.

Obama's foreign policy is incoherent and there's plenty of weakness and appeasement mixed in with the drone strikes.

You could write a letter to your Congressman and Senators opposing the nomination of Chuck Hagel as SecDef.
