Iraq

[Arthur Dent]

i refuse to make a decision on this matter until the world decides if its pronounced "EYE"raq or "EAR"aq !

So, your trying to choose between Brokenjaw and Alkey?!?

Yes, Pakistan is a major problem, but not one that can be solved by a show of force. We can't overthrow a government that is actually cooperating with us (after we gave them $millions in aid first) and they haven't invited us in as anything other than observers and to train their troops in how to fight. At the same time, we seem to have difused the whole India vs. Pakistan crisis for the immediate future.

Saudi Arabia may be a bigger problem than Iraq. Saw a Dateline interview with a former CIA operative who says we have had a blind eye to the Saudi's for decades, intentionally not paying attention to anything they do. We know almost nothing about them and they are the source for most of the 9/11 terrorists.

Oh, and I think the biggest threat Iraq poses is selling it's stock pile of chemical and biological weapons to Al Queda. Iraq does not have the capability of launching a missile attack into Isreal right now according to a report by a retired US marine turned UN inspector. To carry out an attack, they would need an Al Queda terrorist to smuggle the device into the target area.
