A friend of mine and I have been tring to get a betting pool going on which country is next in our little 'holy war'... My money is on Syria, given the sabre rattling that's been going on, and a few things about Iran. it seems to me that it's more than likely a distraction technique, they really might have the bomb (and they've had a little while to get whatever chemical/bio weapons they might need ready, as well as bolster the armed forces of the country), and if we think the 'insurgency' in Iraq is bad... take another large middle-eastern counrty would really really piss off everyone else in the neighborhood. also IMHO Iran really wouldn't mind bombing the living fuck out of Iraq aka. our primary staging ground.

in comparison Syria is small and would be 'easy pickins' (although once again the 'insurgency' from the resulting attack would be staggering.

and North Korea is right out. (for now anyway)
