It's only to get worse and more costly in every aspect. JMO It is not just "their" problem. I wish it were that simple. This can and will IMO, spill over to Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, not to mention Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya (already in process). Do you really think that we will not be drawn in when Turkey (NATO ally) or Israel are directly and overtly threatened? How are we going to respond with a Navy <300 warships? A gutted AF? A depleted Army? This is shaping up to look like a pre-WWII scenario IMO just a different time, different place, and different actors. Outcomes are predictable given the current course we are on.
