There's barely enough troops in Iraq, if Bush decides to invade another country under the guise of "giving them freedom", I shudder to think of what means he'll go through to provide not only the economic resources, but also the troops needed. Aside from all that, because he's not eligible to run for presidency in the next election, he's ultimately not responsible to the american public. So he's got a free run to do anything he wants, as long as he stops just short of anything that will get him impeached. He started a war in his last term of office, and that was when he had to think about re-election.
Here's an article I found about the situation as is stands in Iran:

I hope there isn't a next move, but I'm sure that they are genuinely concerned with Iran, mainly because if they ever do get things going in Iraq, they don't want Iran to mess things up. Bush KNOWS he messed up in Iraq, not by invading, but with the way he has handled it while there. I think he knows that not only will he not be supported by a great deal of the public, but also the military will not support this move. I think/hope he plays its smart for a little while, and keeps the troops in Iraq, lets the troops have a more strict order of ruling in order to have a sense of discipline there, and I believe things will start working out better. I truly don't see the Govn't going anywhere else until the Iraq "crisis" is seen as more of a success to the general public. |
