I posted this in the other thread. I am happy to see that I an not the only one who sees this making entirely too much sense.
Here is a copy/paste off my post in another thread. The reasons why I believe we would attack Israel.
Well, from a business standpoint, taking all relgion out of it...
1. We are broke. Israel is too expensive and needy.
2. We are broke, and need to get out of the war in the middle east.
3. We are broke, and need a partner who we feel is stil below us to take up some of the heat for a while.
4. We are broke, and need oil to not skyrocket or we are in a heep of trouble.
Iran has been trying desperatly to be seen as a power.
If we make friends with them, they could be a very good alliance to have. Considering their relations with other countries.
If we strike Israel taking sides with Iran, and show Iran the respect it desperatly wants, we manipulate them to be loyal to us and we can allow them
to take over the majoriy of peace keeping and taliban fighting...that they so desperatly want to do anyway. That makes everyone happy. We leave the
area: something both sides want. We can not afford it anymore. This is really the only way we can leave if you look at it from a business stand point.
It would be the easiest transition, and we could maintain dignity by not announcing that we are bowing out do to financial difficulties.
It would make too many people happy, burn less bridges, build bigger ones, and be all together the most financially benificial choice in the long run.
You have to choose your battles. Allowing (helping) Iran to win this one (would not technically be counted as a loss on our side) allows us to gain
entirely too much to be ignored. Keep our friends close but your enemies closer.
Americans would be pissed off temprarily but not bad enough that a well spun story couldnt fix.
