The Pentagon released a statement some months ago stating that without serious reductions in the number of troops in Iraq, the US cannot get involved in any other military actions at presentl.

Another war will spread our resources and defenses so thin that the Chinese army could walk down the streets of DC unopposed.
How can our troops defend OUR country which they were hired to do when they are spread all over the world defending everyone elses?
This poor management of foreign policy is leaving the US mainland a sitting duck.

We couldn't even defend one city after Katrina.
Look how long it has taken to try and put down an insurgency in a country the size of Iraq.
I'm sure if we were invaded there would be plenty of people in government and those supporting them that would find a way to point the finger of blame at someone else.

You're forgetting that Iraq itself would be the base of operations if there was any problem with Syria or Iran. Beyond that, I'd just say don't believe everything that you hear. America can get an awful lot done with not very much in a pinch, although it's not prudent to go around trying it all of the time.
