The real name should be OPERATION: PACK YER BAGS, WE'RE MOVING TWO COUNTRIES TO THE RIGHT

I know you're an average American and all, but we're already in Afghanistan. 

[The Fake Shemp]

I'm well aware of that, but don't act like that's not where these guys are going.

[The Fake Shemp]

Pakistan would be three countries to the right.

[The Fake Shemp]

Pfft, it's commonly accepted that Pakistan is in between Afghanistan and India, thus securing it as the THIRD COUNTRY TO THE RIGHT.

[The Fake Shemp]

My original statement was that we are moving the troops two countries to the right, which is Afghanistan!

[The Fake Shemp]

Why would we invade Iran? That ship has sailed. The Jews are going to bomb Iran for us.

[Mandark]

There's been a resurgence of Let's Bomb Iran sentiment from conservative pundits and politicians recently.

Call it "Operation Neocon 2:  You've Forgotten How It Went Last Time?  Good."

I hope this means Robert Pattinson has enlisted.

[Mandark]

Oh, no way does Obama okay a ground invasion of Iran.  Even president Romney would probably consider that a third rail.

But the further you look into the future, the more likely it is that failing to normalize relations will bite someone in the ass.  Iran will continue to militarize cause they're paranoid about a US invasion, Israel will in turn be more paranoid about a strike from Iran.  A couple decades from now people will forget the lessons of Iraq like they forgot the ones from Vietnam, and one dramatic incident might set off a whole war.

It's really fucking irresponsible of pundits to seek short term domestic political gains by telling people that foreigners are out to kill them in their sleep.

It's not too late to invest in gold!

It's just a re-branding exercise.
