"Perhaps a very quiet, very professional downsizing of all our troops from the Mediterranean would send a powerful message toour allies that our alliance is based on friendship and mutual sacrifice, and does not rest in perpetuity, but only as long as there is a group effort to combat a common threat. Those circumstances simply no longer exist."

I like the way this guy thinks; since I've been saying this for the last 12 years.
