Actually Layout, I like the beer I make. It is cheap, good and well mine.
I don't have to pay the sometimes ridiculous prices for the stuff they sell nor do I really worry about if I will like it.
Beer making is easy so why not?
As for Iran, I never ever said discount their intentions or capabilities but do say that there is a lot more to it and that we need to be a bit more grown up about it as a country.
Can something happen?
Yes without a doubt.
Are we the only country (and Israel) that they will target?
NOPE not a chance.
Will other countries be involved if there is a war?
You betcha' there will be others, maybe even Arab countries who don't want to tip the boat yet.
Iran is yanking our chains. They know it is a big game and many here know it is, but a lot of the public and a lot of politicians can't figure it out. When they, like others see a weakness, they exploit it.
If we allow out stupidity to run us, then we are just dumb - for example OIL it traded on the open market in a rather large pool, we may get X amount from Canada or Iran but it isn't that we take our boat to their oil docks and say "hey you Iranian, I want 500000 barrels of oil on my boat, how much?" We may buy their oil from the Dutch or Japan, and then it ships through to us. Just like third party freight.
