    Ayatollahs with nukes is the thing that sounds beyond ridiculous to me.

    Playing right into the hands of ayatollahs trying to gain nukes by elevating tensions, when there's a large young population with far more love for America and the West than, say, Saudi Arabia, is what sounds beyond ridiculous to me.

    Yes, because as the content of the article implies, what we have here is yet another instance of the US being coerced into protecting desperate European nations who are literally battering the White House doors down in their shrill attempts to get Uncle Sam to erect missile batteries in their countries.

    Actually, no - the content of that article suggests that this is yet another example of just how dim-witted your understanding of even clearly-expressed concepts is.

    No, we just played into the hands of Islamic terrorist groups. They never had the access to Iraq that they have right now.
