Rochard, I would say that IF the U.S. pulls all troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan and doesn't rush to their aid...they would both be overthrown within a month or two.
The Taliban is already back in every part of Afghanistan that U.S. military doesn't have a presence.
And ISIS damn near conquered all of Iraq until we went back in there and started bombing like crazy.
I have to agree with Paul on this one. The power brokers in Washington D.C. don't give a damn about "freedom" or "national security interests" (which is just code for invading any country we want to)....they are interested in power.
We have no business bombing, invading, or putting "sanctions" on any sovereign nation in time of peace.
I know it all sounds like a good idea.
But the track record since WW2 of dead people and ruined country's is really, really bad.
