    It is estimated that the greatest mistake the US made in its history, entering WWI, produced, among the 100,000+ dead Americans, 21,000 new millionaires (greasy government contractors of course, the munitions industry, in particular - not surprisingly, all were major proponents of the war).

    won't happen here -This war, if the aftermath is appropriately handled, will better the region, not beget a new Hitler and enegize a Soviet Union, like Wilson's blunder did. And we already are the keeper of the world's peace, so our status in that regard can't change, unlike the aftermath of 1918.

    And the bechtel group already are millionaires, so that won't happen either.

    Progress!
