And those are just the consequences of the war that we can see now.
All of these things have been, are and will be on their own course no matter what we do or don't do. Gary's "The US is the center of the universe argument therefore we are in fact the prime mover everywhere at all times" is not only arrogant, it's stupid.
Pakistan has had 2 or 3 coups in the last 15 years.
Iran has embarked on their course since 1979.
Gary's favorite Nazis damned to hell, the Jews, were fighting Intifada II since the summer of 2000 (or since they were spawned from Satan's loins, depending on how liberal you want to appear to your friends).
Saudi Arabia is no more or less stable now than it has been since the end of the Afghan war and the mujahadeen came home.
Somalia? Civil war of sorts for 20 years, check.
Sudan? Ditto.
Egypt? The same leader frozen in place for 26 years, check.
