Excellent batch.
Something struck about #3. Is it possible that the Neocons learned EVERYTHING they know playing RISK? They don't seem to know the difference between a Shia and a Sunni, for instance. John McCain seems to think Iraq borders Pakistan.
It all seems to fit, particularly when coupled with the conquer or die goal of RISK generally.
Interesting. I'll confess I had nothing close to a political message intended in that 'headline.' 'Risk,' for me, is one of those code words (think, "beef"), that gets me thinking along certain lines, whenever it appears in a headline. Especially when related to anything geographic.
like 3 & 6
