    Default Reuters Cameraman Killed

    Hezbollah is joining fight. Iran seems to be stepping up weapons via Syria.

    Not good news. Wider war forming.

    I think the same of Iran as China: not ready. War now could mess up future, long-term goals.

    I think the reason we're not ready is that there is no future, long-term goals. Spending is the only constant.

    Coincidentally, was just thinking maybe our government ought to start spending some of our money on some ships. If we get embroiled in Israel and China decided to attack? Problem. We don't even have the tools of industry left to gear up to a war footing level. Dems put them out of business.
