Stick to a Tyger in the Year of the Dragon

Israel has nuclear weapons.We have nuclear weapons.
We have used nuclear weapons (twice)on civilian targets
We have threatened to use them in Korea and on Cuba
We have tested them and supply weapons to many nations
Russia's supply of weapons to Syria's government is the moral equivalent
of our supplying weapons to the Libyan Resistance(now Government)
Gulf of Tonkin was a manufactured incident to provoke the Vietnam War
The (almost)sinking of an American spy ship by Israeli aircraft
was a false flag effort to blame Egypt and invade the Middle East
Nuclear-armed aircraft carriers hovering off Iran's coast is a provocation
We are at present disengaging from Iraq and Afghanistan
We cannot afford more wars.Nor can our proxy allies.
Withdraw before blood and treasure is wasted on unnecessary conflict
When you wave a stick at a tyger,you had best sharpen your other options.
