It's sort of ironic. We psyched ourselves up to go after a dictator posing as a democratic leader that we had helped stay in power because we thought he might be considering developing nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, in the second theater of operations, we prop up another dictator posing as a democratic leader who we know has nuclear weapons because he controls one of the borders and has promised to clean up an area where we know our enemies are located but where we cannot go at them directly so as not to offend this guy and because we are overstretched because of the going after the other dictator who didn't really have anything and was nowhere near as dangerous as the guy we are going to for help.

I would personally like to thank this administration for providing the intelligence that led us to this exciting moment in world history. I was a mere toddler during the Cuban missile crisis and missed out on truly appreciating the fear and anxiety adults had over the possibility of world destruction. Our current geopolitical thrill ride hasn't quite reached that point yet, but I have high hopes that the general incompetence of our administration in any diplomacy that doesn't involve a few army divisions or a flight of stealth bombers will soon give us that adrenaline pumping moment that you normally have to pay $30 at an amusement park to experience.
