Duplicity? You're the one who called Eric an ignorant appeaser for no reason.

Now when asked to explain yourself you shrink away?  You're the one being a coward.

If you weren't a coward, you would do one of two things.  You would either confront that you're wrong, admit it, or explain why I'm wrong.

Like many here (Winger, sneakers, SC1, FSG), you probably think that politics is just for the LOLs and pro wrestling style promos, and you shrink away when someone wants to get specific and detailed because that's "boring" or "annoying". Or maybe you're more like L2L and you've repeatedly fallen victim to random rabbit hole indoctrination on YouTube and mistake that for informed knowledge.

Note that I have claimed nothing about who is an appeaser, which candidate has better ideas about Russia, or anything on the actual topic.  My mind is actually open on that topic, if you can convince me.

Iran, China and Russia are allies.

Is this an Axis of evil or not? Simple question.

I don't need a diatribe of your crap, just a yes or no.

It absolutely is an axis of evil, yes.  Almost everything they cooperate on is designed to hurt us and our allies.  Don't forget North Korea and sometimes Venezuela.  EricC85 probably agrees with me.  What do you think?

Iran Russia and China are major axis of evil we are going to have to face soon. However my greatest concern is closer to home. 

I watch South and central America and this is where we are most vulnerable. The people are starved from corrupt governments sold out to the cartels. The communist are buying resources faster then they can list them and driving the poor across our border. 

I wish we had a foreign policy of investing, securing and hell even fighting in central and South America like we have in the Middle East over the last few decades. We have all the natural resources ever needed between North central abd South america, similar moral beliefs, common views on trade and so many other areas to build on. A strong American continent is probably our best hope for a rising Asia and Russian conflict. As it stands now when war comes it will come from the south and we're not ready for that.
