    Why not. Chess is a game of war.

    Consider this:

    Who funds more terrorist activities than any other country?

    Who found themselves with US Armed Forces to thier east in late 2001?

    What country to thier west was used to place them in "check"?

    NATO to the east of me
    Democracy and NATO to the west.

    I’m stuck in the middle again!

    Who will make the move that takes them out of "check"?

    Definitely. Supposedly Napoleon was a great chess-player. The strategy in chess is very deep, much more so than these newer games that another person mentioned.
