(2 posts)Here my take on a Romney presidency:
I don't think he'll start WW3 but I think he is so stupid on foreign affairs that he might blunder us into it.
These are almost guarantees:
1. He'll turn Israel lose to attack Iran.
2. He'll get us involved in the Syrian conflict.
#1 - By turning Israel lose to attack Iran, this will cause Iran AND Russia to counter-attack. Why Russia?
Putin has already said that any country that attacks Iran will face "grave consequences". I believe they
(Iran and Russia) would level Israel. What will Mitt do then?
#2 - Somehow I feel that we'll end up with ground troops in Syria. If we do they will eventually be fighting
Russian troops. I see this as even more dangerous than Iran. This will cause an escalation of conflicts into
several other countries and could easily get out of hand really fast.
I don't think Putin will be very shy about using nuclear weapons. If his troops are getting their butts kicked
thoughout the Middle East, I see it happening.
Romney will either blunder us into WW3 or have to back down to the Russians. I don't see him backing down.
His stupidity is the most serious threat to the security of this country since Al Qaeda started the so-called
war of terror.
