I don't know why people think Iran is the next target - especially for a ground invasion. Iran is already under pressure - we occupy countries on both sides of it. Most Iraqis still hate the Iranians. The Peshmerga is increasingly becoming a viable military force (that's the Kurdish army, in case you don't know - a big time threat to Iraq, Iran, and Turkey). I think that Syria would be a much more inviting target. They have been letting terrorists into Iraq or giving them sanctuary. They are really beginning to piss off the current Iraqi government. They are Ba'athists. The WMD trail points to Syria. On the opther hand, I've seen Syrian TV - the chicks are a hell of a lot hotter than the Iraqi ones. They aren't as conservative over there. Must be a west coast thing - damn liberals!
