under president carter one -- president perdue -- the turkish president there is a longing for , the glories for the real caliphate, the ottoman empire, and dominance of the whole region. as iran is more powerful, into syria, and now into yemen, they see the beckoning of empire. so you have to look at the nuclear agreement as one step in this. so i think senator graham is very right to be concerned about starting a nuclear arm race in the region. but i think regardless of how the agreement comes out you will have the turkish competition. these nations are sly and clever and don't like the american definition of war. in america, we think it is war or peace. we are going to shake hands or drop a nuclear weapon and send in the marines in the 101st. in reality, this is armed struggle for regional dominance. it is playing out through the terrorist organizations. isis for example, when the united states says we will destroy isis, i don't think that is going to happen because isis is supported by countries in the region to wage war against other countries in the region. it is simply using t
