U.S. needs to be global policeman for other countries....
...so it can give them foreign aid money.

I doubt Iran would open themselves up to full scale nuclear retaliation. Besides, this exercise is academic since Iran has no nukes, is a signatory of the nuclear non proliferation treaty (unlike Israel), and is in compliance with the IAEA.
If you want a nuclear powered Muslim country to worry about, try Pakistan. They've threatened to shoot down our drones because we keep collaterally damaging their population, not to mention violating their sovereignty.
According to a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report published in October 2007, the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan could
cost taxpayers a total of $2.4 trillion dollars by 2017
when counting the huge interest costs because combat is being financed with borrowed money.
so the central bankers will again make huge $$$ from the war.
$2.4 trillion is not realistic. add twice that amount which goes through black budgets.
with 2.4 tr $ the USA could easily build, well 10 million homes.
18 million homes in USA are already vacant. So that would mean 28 million homes vacant.
boy, with so much supply, the prices can only drop! = less income for the bankers, ay ay ay
