Kobeck. Nuclear wars are winnable but they can be lose-lose. As stated, I'm all for a first strike if we get to that 'critical point' but that only works for governments. I'm not sure a nuke will 'win' anything in the mountains of Pakistan/Afghanistan.

Drake. A little too far out for me.

Vegas Vic. I do not agree with your comparison of us-hating-them is anywhere on the same level of them-hating-us. It is far more vehement and cohesive with the Muslim population-hating-us.

I agree with your statement with 'friendly' Muslim governments being in a rock and a hard place. I think the 2 exceptions are Kuwait and Qatar (and maybe Afghanistan) ... my vote for the 'shining examples in being pro-US/Western.

Warhammer. No I can't think of anything whose price is based on 20-30 yrs down the road. However, I don't think that's how oil is priced now, is it?
