If you have not watched this video, you would think that what General Wesley Clark said was a myth. Of the 7 countries mentioned, only the axis of Lebanon (Hezbollah), Syria (only a matter of time), and Iran remain. USA, with its African allies, successfully removed the Al-Shabab from power in Somalia and successfully partitioned Sudan with the granting of Independence to the predominantly Christian South, meaning that 7 4 are already destroyed: Iraq, Libya, Somalia, and Sudan. General Clark mentioned 7, not 8, because at the time, Afghanistan was already being bombed, meaning it’s actually 8 countries, not 7, including Afghanistan.
When Obama declared that the USA would bomb Syria as early as within days of his speech, the world held its breath. I think what really saved Syria from bombing devastation similar to what it did to Libya was the UK’s parliament vote of no go. The USA is so financially broke; it won’t go to another war unless its traditional allies like the UK and NATO (who are likewise broke) are willing to go along and pay for the cost.
The USA as of today is still locked down without the necessary budget to finance government operations. It's bizarre. The World Bank is warning the US government to end the lockdown and fix the debt ceiling or default on its debts and drag down the world economy. The USA’s current debt now stands at 16.7 trillion dollars.
