Not to mention the absolutely ridiculous notion that we could get Iran or Syria to help us on this. Hell, even if they did, it would make us look like desperate, pathetic retards.

I'm not saying we shouldn't work on our diplomacy with those countries - quite the contrary. But come on, you gotta be kidding me. When they aren't hating us, they're hating each other, including Iraq.

I'm also so sick of the idea that America can bring peace to Israel, and that everything that happens in the Mid East hinges on it.
