TNT:
Conrad: TNT: All I can say is "Be Ready at ANY moment". Do Not set your hair on fire. You got this. Be wise. Take your time. Consider your options. Verification, Negotiation, Diversivication.

With that done, it just makes sense to reward the people of Iraq and not make them wait more.
Luvwulfs: hosackr that's what I see playing out
