The truth is out in the open now....perhaps the United States will start withdrawing troops from Europe and stay away from entanglements in that part of the World.

We would be better put to move our over seas troop basing closer to the Middle East/Red Sea/Persian (Arabian) Gulf and in Southeast Asia.

If we assume a long-term strategy of securing our oil/gas supplies from the America's thus eliminating our need for Middle Eastern oil....we would be much better off long term.

Let the Chinese have the Middle East oil...Europe can have Russian oil...and the World would be a happier place.
