Just like Afghanistan - We barely did anything to topple their government.
Very true and this kills me... The US gets most of it's oil from the US, Canada, and fucking Mexico. They could shut down the Persian Gulf in the morning and we'll still get our oil from Canada and Mexico.
Russia is no longer overly concerned about supporting other countries it was once friendly to. They can't afford to. They no longer have the money to support other countries, and when these fuckers turn to mother Russia for support.... It's really not there.
WTF does China care about Iraq? They don't even care about North Korea; In fact, I think China wants the US to invade NK. They are tried of supporting them, and tried of their citizens crossing their border. Not to mention if China looks at us the wrong way we'll just stop importing their cheap shit, which would instantly sink them.

Iran is nothing like Afghanistan. You remember the Afghani air force? No because there wasn't one. You remember the Afghani army? Of course not. Now you have Iran, the 8th largest military (in terms of people) in the world. You think it would be the same? LOL
And if any country is running out of money fast it is the US of A. China would sink? You seem to have forgotten about the rest of the world, which would prop China up long enough for them to come in with their army twice the size of yours and take the money owed to them by you guys. If anything would sink it would be the US if they even tried shit like that, don't kid yourself China would own you guys (in the sense that they would beat you, not own you like money-wise because they already own you that way) quickly, easily, swiftly and permanently. Or do you think your politicians can convince people that paying 1000% more for pretty much EVERYTHING is ok??
