[Baron Munchausen]

I wonder why all these lists of possible consequences of the war on Iraq have completely skipped over the most likely. Isn't it fairly obvious the Iraq will not be the only country in the Middle East to experience a change of regime? The people in Iraq's neighbor countries are just as much against the war as the European population, if not more so, and they have lots of other reasons for anger at the US. When the troops march there could be revolutions in our 'ally' countries like Jordan or Saudi Arabi. Not a very good outcome to have to occupy Iraq while trying to rebuild it and simultaneously deal with the sudden cut off of all Saudi oil. Even Egypt is not safe from this possibility. Now that would be a serious mess if the most populous Arab country were to have a revolution and switch to Islamic radicalism. No more acces to the Suez canal and Israel would have serious security problems again.
