Well I'm all in favor of that. However we see that we have flexed our muscle in Iraq and threatened Syria with consequences if they don't stop hiding and abetting the terrorists. We have threatened Iran over nuclear weapons and North Korea also. And where has all this sabre-rattling gotten us so far? Syria still supports the terrorists; North Korea and Iran ignored our threats; maybe diplomacy might be a more attractive option at this point?
As for oil; which currency will the oil markett be tied to in the future? Dollars/Euros/Yen; thats pretty important stuff regarding our financial interests. If China begins to make headway in the Mid-East and since they hold most of our debt there would be a powerfull weapon in the currency markett they could use against us.
