Considering the miserable failure of US policy to shape the world

Other than in the middle-east, which is incurable, the U.S. has done a great job in keeping the world relatively stable.

The big problem is that, when liberals take over the government, the world starts to crumble.

There will never be another large scale ground war, not since the creation of nuclear weapons.

Since anybody with nuclear weapons will show great restraint before using them, there won't be nuclear weapons deployed. Which leaves the alternative, and that is ground wars with a large array of new and very potent weapons. We already had "tiny" previews of what ground wars will look like for the future, and that was in Iraq and Afghanistan, and to a lesser extent, what is happening in the Israel/Ghaza conflict now. Just imagine that kind of "conflict" on a much larger scale, with many countries involved, and you'll have WWIII.

No, there will not be any large scale grand wars that involve 2 nuclear powers. What do you think would happen when one side or the other gets desperate? Having nuclear weapons is almost a guarantee that a country won’t be invaded. Otherwise, the world would have taken out that sadistic nutjob in N. Korea long ago.
