Most nations first rot from the inside before some barbarian finally kicks the door down to the palace. If they hadn't rotted that barbarian would have never gotten over the border. Look at the culture, it's values, it's elites and the state of the institutions and infrastructure. The fact that most of our advanced weapons platforms have either been cancelled or toned down to such a state as to make them into only show case toys, should say a lot to us.

I doubt that they are toned down. When strong, feighn weakness, Sun Tzu says.

Most nations first rot from the inside before some barbarian finally kicks the door down to the palace. And that is, of course, the myth that keeps on giving.
