We must strike a balance between the power in the Middle East to protect the world


Many analysts of war, Middle East authors of books on the Iraq and foreign diplomats warn us of the serious problem of current Iraqi conflict on the balance of power in the Middle East. The problem is so serious. Thus, there is only one Solution left now and that we must balance power in the region. Unfortunately the Iraq was no longer a permanent army and the Iran has a standing army of 1 million soldiers and volunteers for suicide.

Obviously to balance power, that they should be eliminated. Although resolves that issue is not it. But unfortunately, this is not the only problem. The Iran of nuclear weapons and whether these weapons programs should also be eliminated too. Is that what you ask? Non- and I am pleased that you have requested.

You see Iran buy guided missiles of Russian and Chinese anti-aircraft radar rocket that can travel 1,200 miles and if these pieces of military equipment will have to be sprayed. Given that caused United States this imbalance in the power, it is we take care of this problem and do what must be done as soon as possible.

It is regrettable, after studies of some 100 different scenarios that the only possible solution is to act in masterful balance of powers, in the region which is not out of balance. You see "Balance" is so important in our lives and the world, we must listen to those who tell us to stay in balance, and if we must now balance the power to save the world.
