Poll question: Who does Bush plan on invading next?
In case anyone is wondering Pakistan is listed because that county is only one mans heartbeat away from being a bigger problem for the US than all the rest.

17. They run around the Oval Office playing 'Taser Tag'...
the one who gets zapped (and paralysed) gets "invaded". :)

4. Iran ...... hence the holding hands with the Saudis
Edited on Tue Apr-26-05 08:55 PM by doublethink
for more oil earlier today. See Venezuela will shut down the oil supplies to the US because of it, the invasion of Iran. Bush cowered down to the Saudis .... my opinion anyway. We shall see. Peace. :)

Not to mention the inclusion possibility's of Saudi Arabia being let into the WTO in the last day or two .... I mean that came out of left field! :wtf:

7. no invasion...
he'll just fire off a few missiles to make these countries do an in house regime change...or at least try that measure. It's bow to the emperor chimp or else plan.

13. Lebanon/Syria, Venezuela, Cuba, NK
These are the remaining countries (after Iraq) not fully integrated into the Western banking system.

They will try to do it via friendly coups on the "Orange Revolution" model if possible.

The attempt on Venezuela will fail.

NK may not be dared.

Iran might be bombed but will not be invaded - either way will be a disaster.

For the next act I expect some attack in Lebanon or elsewhere to be blamed on Syria and lead to a US/UK/Israeli action. This may include an Iranian bombing.

Venezuela will be attempted soon after. Again, they will fail.

Iraq will end with the Green Zone evacuated by helicopter, a la Vietnam.

18. If you mean nonmilitarily? We've undoubtedly invaded dozens.
If you mean militarily, I don't think he will. There's too much internal strife at PNAC over what model to use for the next attack and what target would work. Fukuyama, among others, is dead-set against using the Iraq model on any other states. Rumsfeld thinks it will work, given time. If they could find a nation to attack that could be done the way Iraq was supposed to be done, they might--MIGHT--do it, but they also realize that overreaching could cause them to lose all the gains they've made in the last four years and could make in the next four if they play it slow.

But I don't see much in the way of anything good. Hopefully they are about to get their asses thrown out. :freak:

19. Does bombing count as invading?
I'll bet he'd bomb Iran without considering actually putting boots on the ground. I think Syria's easier pickings in that respect myself.

34. I Think Syrias...
"pull-out" from Lebanon puts an invasion or bombing of them the off the table for quite a while. IMO, If it comes, it's gonna be Iran.

21. I voted Iran, without looking at any other responses because............
so much rhetoric has already been put forth by this admin about Iran having WMDs, they can't retreat on their talking points about it.

25. Whoever is weak, can't fight back, isn't Christian, & "needs democracy"
Pakistan & North Korea have nukes so they're safe

Venezuela is predominantly Catholic, so they're safe

Saudi Arabia owns the Bushes, so they're safe

hmmmm

He knows he looks bad for the Iraq war. I don't think he can manage to push another one on us again.

28. Bush will invade Venezuela next in support of a new coup
Americans have been bred to believe they have a Gawd-given right to rape and pillage Latin America, so a Bush invasion of Venezuela will be accepted as a matter of fact.

31. it WILL NOT be Iran...they'd hand us our hat.
we don't have the troop strength at this point to go into Iran, and even if we did, the arab community won't take kindly to another mideast adventure by the u.s.

32. The country of the moment is Iran
Last month it was Syria.

Next month, it might be Syria again. Depends on what they can hang their agressions on, current events-wise.

36. Other. He plans to invade all of the above and more, and not stop until
he and his corhorts have glutonous wealth and America is in complete ruins and has hardly a man left standing.
