I think we ought to consider adding a 52nd and maybe a 53rd state, after we clean out all the human waste there. Seems we do a lot of paying, dying and insult catching and maybe we ought to conduct ourselves like those we go to battle with, like buisness corps would do. We will call it a hostile takeover in payment for services rendered.
Either that or offer them the option in a one time vote, 25 year contract with oil at 20 a barrel or we annex part of your country permanantly.
I am liking this idea more and more everyday. And we are right next door to Iran now. Stop playing around, as Patton said about the Russians we have our Army's here we are going to have to do it sooner or later let me go. Tell Iran that in no uncertain terms in a initially private meeting so they can save face, that they are threatening the world and our friends with annihalation and we consider that an act of war. De-construct the nuclear facility and live in peace with us or we will destroy your entire infra-structure in 72 hours. And if we have one soldier die in the effort we will annex part of your country in payment for the effort you forced us to do.
Those in that area understand that kind of strength and the world as we know it will change, they don't want to go back to living in tents and mud huts again
There I've vented, I feel better now ;)
