Given a few more years, with the sanctions gone and someone like Obama possibly in place, our other middle East allies wobbly , he could have been a very big problem.
Alternatively, in stead of having the middle East blowing up we get an endless stream of terrorists coming to Europe and America, with the Arab populous on the sidelines facilitating and cheering them on openly or privately, with us having no center of gravity we can create the political will to attack.
