Yes, I'm not at down on what is said above. I'd also add removing all US troops/military bases from places say like Saudi Arabia. I'd also start a Manhatten Project like thing to remove any and all need for imported Mideast oil. I think we could buy a lot of solar plants/windmills/nuclear plants for what we're blowing in military aid for that god forsaken hellhole part of the world.
That's Rag's beating swords into plowshares sort of idea. If/when the place just blows up, we'll have no dog in those fights.
Now yer talkin' pardner.
