BTW, the problem abroad is not an American problem even if we are embroiled in it. The problem is a global problem that dwarfs American national involvement. The great crisis in Iraq at the moment is the Iranian intrigue to continue what they were unable to do by the Iran-Iraq war. The reason for the war was the Iranian agents fomenting the same kind of revolution that overthrew the Shah in 1979. By 1980 Saddam Hussein purges the Iranian revolutionaries. Iraqi forces drove the Iranian forces back to Iran but it was soon clear that Iraq would fall to the overwhelming numbers of Iranian forces. The US, together with Middle East nations came to the aid of Iraq in order to prevent radical Shiite control of Iraq. Whether or not the US overthrow of Saddam Hussein's Baath government was advisable is moot at the moment. The problem reverts back to the Iran-Iraq war. The consequences of the radical Shiite control of Iraq weighs heavy in the future stability of the Middle East and Europe. It has been the European posture the depend on the US and Britain to do the heavy stuff. I don't wish to step on anyone's feelings here. Just wish to provide a factual basis for consideration. I have always appreciated your ideas and those of others who are inclined to explore political colloquy in a civil way. I miss Juan Garfolo's comments. I think he is brilliant. Some are opposed to political discussions on the List. I can appreciate that. However, I think it is healthy to exchange ideas if it is civil and I think you contribute much to assuring that that it is. ----- Original Message ----- From: "James Newtons Massmind" To: "'Microcontroller discussion list - Public.'"
