Finish what you started

http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/europe/02/09/rice/index.html


As I read the first few lines of this a few thoughts come to mind.
1- Finish what you started in Afghanistan, a country where tribal
leaders who love bin Laden and the Taliban run 90% of the country (if Bush was really worried about terrorism, he's pay a lot more attention to this breeding ground)
2- Finish what you started in Iraq
3- What "next steps"? Does America have a secret army that it's
going to invade Iran with?
4- Why should we believe anything this administration says about
Middle Eastern countries possessing WMD?
5- I believe that the US is a little jealous of the success the
Europeans have had with diplomacy in Iran.
6- An invasion of Iran would be disastrous. Iranians like the
freedom and the West, more so than other Middle Eastern countries, they have a recent history of rising up against oppression and they don't like the religious leaders. An American invasion turns all that Iranian goodwill to a hatred of America in order to protect their country.
7- Does anyone in this administration have a freakin clue about
anything that happens outside of Crawford Texas?
8- The balls of America to suggest that other countries should live
up to Agreements re: nuclear weapons when it unilaterally withdrew from the ABM treaty.
