Ahem...your post read:

The USA cannot dominate the high seas anymore and won’t try.

The gist of your post was, simply, that we can't resist this resolution and shouldn't bother trying to resist it. I think that's an asinine opinion, personally. Of course we should resist, even if nothing comes of our resistance. I'd rather resist and have stood up for what's right than lay down because the odds are overwhelming.

• shouldn't

  Could as well have said won't or aren't. But to abuse the language by saying this is equivalent to saying shouldn't earns an F in reading comprehension. Asinine is an inappropriate term for this BBS.
