Erm, not to overstate things, but are you seriously comparing the Republican Party to the Nazi Party? There's a few relevant differences, among them that Republicans genuinely believe in freedom and democracy (not a major party value among Nazis) and want no part of empire by conquest. Your implication to the contrary undermines the credibility of your entire position.

One war at a time, please. Well, OK, two, but Afghanistan is a small one.
Fundamentally, you are right about Saudi. Cutting off their oil money over the medium term would be one of the best things we could do for the war on terror. Hydrogen fuel cells anyone?

I don't see how that could possibly work. Can you expound upon it further? How would that not simply be giving Palestinean and Israeli extremists covenient targets (assuming here, that we chose to police a position not sateisfactory to either side)?
