    America is one of the small dominos here, their fall enabled what is happening in the ME now.

    China is going nowhere. Russia would be on its knees by now if it wasnt for America propping it up.

    There’ll be a Netanyahu Square in Tehran, named after the Reaganesque hero who brought down the Evil Empire.

    Also, any day now, Americans will be buying Iraqi-made cars, as their grandparents did German and Japanese cars.

      That could have a pretty negative consequence in the future. In Hungary, we have Reagan fans, who think he created “personal individualism” (freedom of expression, a right that is under threat in Hungary), not economic one, and if you describe Reagan’s actual pollicies to them, they think you’re lying, because conservatism was supposed to be a beautiful ideology that marries individualism (in the freedom of expression sense of course) with a love for tradition, not the conservation of power of the powerful. Also these people like to pretend that Viktor Orbán is a communist, because anti-communism also supposed to be a beautiful ideology for freedom.

      What are you on about? Israel didn’t exist before WW2. And the guys stoked on disappearing jews off the face of earth didn’t do much to help prevent WW2.

          Oh fuck off prick, it was you who said a solution would be to rid the earth off of Israel, which didn’t exist, so obviously your implications would rest on jews alone, you fucking scumbag

            With the removal of the US’s puppet state in the middle east, the islamist terrorists wouldn’t have any reason to destabilize their part of the continent.
