Not to mention terrorist harboring with absolutely no plans to improve our stance in the region

They made our afghan war so much more difficult

yea, they take our money and harbor terrorist with it. Then they cry when we go in and blow some shite up.
I wish we could get some actual debate going about cutting spending by looking at all the shite bag allies we have that we could cut off.

Pakistan. Definitely Pakistan. If India finally gets the nads to go in there and start a whole bunch of shite I hope we steer clear but maybe accidentally give them all the intel we have on Pakistan.
Saudi Arabia is up there.
I hate the frogs but we have worse allies.

Pakistan and Saudi Arabia for the reasons mentioned above.
Israel is the least of our worries. They are the only forward thinking nation that doesn't want us minimized or obliterated in that area.

Israel is a pain in the arse but they're our pain in the arse.

yea, having to rescue them isn't as bad as what the saudis and pakistan do to us.
Posted on 1/20/14 at 6:02 pm to heartbreakTiger
I agree

they pull a lot of our money and resources but I don't feel like we use them correctly. I feel like they could be used to handle more dirty work and they probably wouldn't have a problem doing it.

I'm pretty sure that the UAE doesn't want us obliterated.

Yes. True they are a pain but they aren't the ones over there that want to kill a nation just for existing.

Maybe I am wrong but I feel like we do that anyway. IDF and the Mossad (I think that's them) aint half bad outside of the whole Lebanon in 2006 business. Even then they kicked a bunch of arse but had their own little Afghanistan/Iraq/Vietnam

they do but I feel like we keep them on a leash. I wouldn't mind giving them more leash to play with.

I like to think the powers to be who aren't monitored as much let the Israelis do some work but yea, I feel like the US does slow them down. That said, if it were up to Israel at this point they'd already be going balls to the wall and invite a multitude of arab nations to form a coalition against the Jews. Wouldn't last but for Israel they'd make it work for a second.
That said, for the inner war nerd/heartless shite in me I wouldn't mind seeing the modern day Israeli contingent take on such a force. Only if the US could remain neutral. Or wait until after all hell has broken loose and come in and finally stabilize the situation after the first punches were thrown.
But those are all hypotheticals for anyone who wants to lose their shite about me being curious about the outcomes

UAE is extremely westernized and moderate Islam. I stand corrected.

Oh, yea, definitely wishful thinkin. Would be interesting to see if they'd let the IDF take the ground role and perhaps take more of an air support/naval support role.

I'm impressed no one has said Obama yet

Israel are our homeboys. They rustle the muslim jimmies.
I remember the story from 1981 when they sent jets to Iraq to blow up their nuclear reactor.

I think it would be pretty interesting to see Israel take on a bunch of middle east countries. I wasn't alive to the see the 6 day war or the Yom Kippur War. I imagine it would be something like a giant vs a bunch of ankle bitters.
