If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin

By YOUR very statements that NO ONE will allow them to fly over Iraq. Guess what numb-nuts there has already been sign agreements to have the military forces out in 3 years. This would be the BULK of the forces but you can damn sure bet WE WILL HAVE A PRESENCE if you think otherwise your just fooling yourself...
You really think he won't backpedal on this like he has almost everything else. I will give you he isn't too bright but when he is briefed on EVERYTHING that there is to know about the region I guarantee there will be long standing presence....Our President-elect seems to think otherwise. Direct your question to him

NO i didn't mean across the med. north then east to the caspian sea then south right into iran. and no its 24 millions miles !!!! its alternative. that's all. but 1 way or another they'll get there. and its already planned up and ready to go.......
How do they get to the Caspian without crossing Turkey?.....look, if it goes down, it goes down like this......Israeli planes fly across Syria, which they have already shown they can do with immunity.....then, along the Iraqi/Turkish border....we won't fire on them, Turkey probably can't......the whole world is pissed at them....which has happened before.....Iran loses thousands of centrifuges and nuclear war is delayed another ten to fifteen years......by June, everyone is happy again.....

...full immersion.....
I have a strange sensation of being bombarded with repetitious gloop;Last month, amid mounting fears in Israel that the U.S. was doing nothing to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power, Ehud Olmert, Israel's Prime Minister, warned President Bush the last chance of destroying Tehran’s nuclear bomb-making program was passing.

Let it pass, George. You're insignificant enough already.
