Clearly, we have no way to defend ourselves with so few military protections in place.
Who here thinks we’ll be at war with Iran before the next election? If so, who thinks this won’t be politically motivated? If so, who wants to buy this machine I built that turns politician’s hot air into gold?
Each star marks a US military base, but just so we’re all clear: Iran is threatening the US.

Fear fear.
No we are not going to attack Iran! We should NOT be afraid of these whacko’s though. We could wipe them off the planet in a few hours it we wanted to do so, which we do not. Besides Obama baby and his Iranian side kick ‘Valerie’ loves to kiss up to these people. The issue is: When will Iran start a conflict with its neighbors. The Saudi’s and the other mideast countries would like nothing better than to see Iran be attacked by anybody, but it is wholly unlikely that it will be us, at least in the near future.
It is so obvious as to not need stating. We have though a lot of politicians of both parties mouthing off but falling short of saying: Let’s attack them.
Iran isn’t gonna attack the US. It might attack Israel, some day. And as the US government is very much joined at the hip with Israel. Any threat to Israel is automatically seen as a threat to America. So many of America’s politicians seem to owe some allegiance to the country. More so than they take their oath of office to America, as seriously. But then America doesn’t lobby them as well, as Israel does. So we commit troops and weapons to defending whoever pays our elected representatives off, the most. That’s how it works. Too bad Israel doesn’t also pick up the tab for the cost of the US military budget to look after them. But I’m sure it’s far cheaper to just wine and dine 100 US Senators. Too bad the US didn’t have the balls to come the defense of Tibet, against the China invasion. Buddhism is at least as old as Judaism, if not much older. But again, the Tibetan monks don’t lobby big time.
Ya know, technically, what the US Congress does amounts to reverse Money Laundering. For a small amount of campaign dollars (or expensive meals) , they legislate millions and billions of tax dollars to aid special interests. It’s “reverse” money laundering, because normally a lot of “dirty” money gets turned into much smaller amounts of “clean” money. But Congress turns tiny amounts of “dirty” lobbying bucks, into vast amounts of “clean” appropriations dollars. And of course it’s all legal and above board, because they do it. You try doing that, and see what happens.
Ever since the “fall” (or stumble) of the Soviet Union, the US has been finding all these other counties to pick fights with. So much for the “peace dividend” the tax payers never saw. So when it’s not stopping whomever might be bulling Israel now. It’s just a way to keep the defense dollars rolling in. Peace costs the US defense contractors big time. And not to mention few generals get promoted, or promised VP jobs with said contractors. after retiring. It often makes me ill to think of how much so many lower rank soldiers have sacrificed, just to provide huge profits of those politically connected corporations, and their commissioned stooges, and elected puppets. Eisenhower tried to warn us of this. But he really didn’t warn us very hard. Being part of the whole thing, himself. He didn’t want to lose his retirement plan.
Dave,
Can you tell us where you got that map and give us a link, maybe?
I believe us is taking their care not to rush into war with Iran. Iran is fun of been loud. An empty drum make the loudest noise.
