And, it seems reasonable that we would all hope that Saudi Arabia, Quatar, UAI, the 'STANS, Israel, Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, Pakistan, etc. would convene and work this out to stop the terrorism from multiplying and threatening the whole area. But, the record so far, says that our take out of our installed puppet dictators and alliances with many nefarious groups, now out of control, has created such a mess that who could agree on anything? I'm thinking some would rather enjoy our desperation over ISIS while those who benefit from the oil & gas disruption will happily go on with business as usual.

The "Pottery Barn" scenario..? Or the "Grand Awakening" of the Middle East...
