‘US ready to face any Iranian threat’

"The United States military machine is undiminished after four years of fighting in Iraq and is more prepared than ever to face any threat from Iran, one of the US military’s most senior officials said. Admiral Timothy Keating, head of US military operations in 41 countries, was speaking in Bahrain days after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad labelled the US army “shabby”, and said his Western foes had “rusty and disabled weapons.”"

The United States military machine is undiminished? What has this guy been smoking? The United States military machine is broken and it will take years to fix it. Oh well, like my dad use to say, "sometimes a good old fashion ass-whipping is the best lesson."
