Looks like we shall get our endless war on terror or whatever it is.
It's like an equation. Allied action in Afghanistan make Pakistan worse. All those countries from Lebanon to Pakistan, well even Indonesia. What did they say? A democratic Iraq would be a beacon (I suppose it was a beacon, that's what you'd expect it to be) to cause a democratic domino effect through Syria, Egypt, Uzbekistan (Have they got a pipeline? they don't have any oil? is there still a US base there? Has anyone been boiled alive there recently?)
Maybe a good time to have shares in the weapons industry (plenty of scope for future earnings)?
