Libya plan is being finished.
It should be
(a) a country which produces a huge percentage of America's oil
(b) a country which won't put up much of a fight
Therefore, Canada.

I suppose an argument could be advanced for Venezuela. It would solve a lot of problems. And we know the country probably better than the Venezuelans do. Yep, it's got a lot going for it. :)

Orinico crude is so heavy, though. Let's wait and see how that new Brazilian oil turns out first.

You can also bring back all their great El Sistema musicians to replace all those entitled jerks constantly striking for pay - I'm sure they'd work for less ;D

No, the US should invade itself instead.

Nonono. My wife works in oil and is going to Brazil for a business trip coming Sunday. Should she cancel?

Haaretz is about as impartial regarding Netanyahu as Fox News is impartial about Obama. Much of what is in that article is merely an expression of the editor's political opinions, and corresponds to reality only by accident in some places. It's a very real possibility that the Iranian leadership now in place thinks the counterattack from Israel and the US would be an acceptable price to pay. And even if they don't, it's very certain they would freely use the threat of nuclear weapons.
That said, the possibility of a US attack on Iran seems to be making greater noise here in the US than it was a short while ago.

She's probably safer in Brazil. After all, Norway fits the requirements even better than Brazil. (Or maybe Scotland instead of Norway.)

Neither did Iraq and that didn't do it any good, did it? When did the US ever need a reason other than the one it can make up?
Canada it is.
We will let you keep the Jets, though.

Their volcanoes are a threat to the world due to how they affect global warming. The solution: drop about 50-100 hydrogen bombs in the country to destroy the volcanoes!
Yeah! :)

Short of turning this thread into nonsensical GW argument, I'd like to know how much of a threat they are with respect to the increase in average global temperature.

Then lose all the geothermal vents in the process, and cry their eyes out when renewable energy sources become all the fad in a few decades' time.
Pakistan and India have nuclear weapons. They would attack each other and initiate the 3rd. war.

True. Last time they created a third country in Bangladash. This time would they give birth to Cashmire?

Greece
We want our money back!
You don't need to invade. Democracy in Europe has been quite adroitly trashed in two brief weeks. In Greece and Italy we have brand new governments. Were these brought in by successful protests by the population? No. Are they elected? No. They were brought about by pressure from Germany and France who basically called the shots in order to reduce pressure in the Euro zone.
It might be that there is scant history of democracies going to war with one another, but as I say: you don't need to.
BTW, neat name the new Greek Premier has; seems he was born to the job.

Apparently he's the Rosemary's Baby of Bankster Approved Shills. Sickening. >:D Hope the Greeks go...uh... medieval on him.
Well, if they do, then over here in Europe we will all suffer. Either that or Germany and France will have him replaced.

Yes, but this misses out all the fun of bombarding the Parthenon with our heavy artillery.

Israel is ready to field-test a number of the most advanced bunker-buster bombs it took delivery from the US a few years ago. This may well be the Christmas 2011 surprise ...
