Re: McCain on Iraq - Withdrawl will lead to civil war
it will also encourage the religious sunnis in KSA,jordan,syria and Egypt to overthrow their respective govts
While I agree it will create some regional instability in the short-term (resulting in higher gas prices we pay at the pump), but I am not entirely convinced that this will be such a bad thing in the long-term. Many of these are real or pseudo-dictatorships, and I don't think many of us will lose our sleep if the kings and princes are disposed to be replaced by government by the people of these countries. Add Kuwait, Doha, Bahrain and UAE in the mix too. Buncha hereditary kings/thugs all over the frikkin' place.
