What I’m REALLLLLY happy about is that we’re not getting invaded here in CONUS, right..?
And not every day, a couple thousand or so, over the last 30 or 40 years.
Press 1 for English.
Yup, we got it alllll wrapped up, here at home, tight as a drum...!
Now we can go all over the GLOBE..!
Won’t our military people just relish THAT..!
Yea, we’re have a shell of a military (thanks to the ‘peace dividend’) and we keep running around the world like we’re kings.
China has already matched our GNP, but without anything close to our debt level - so they can, if they want, simply outspend us militarily until we collapse trying to keep up (as in Soviet Union in 1980s). Anyone who reads the Washington Times knows that Russia may have been told that they ‘lost’ the Cold War, but they certainly don’t act like losers. I think just about everything they have has been updated/replace/modernized - while our idea of modernization is to replace old, proven, systems with ‘high-tech’ GPS and Sat-comm, because they’re more flashy. We don’t have to worry about those systems being (easily) jammed, because, why, that isn’t permitted by the UN.
Go figure.
We're in Somalia to DO GOOD. People are starving. We have mission FOCUS.
Well...
...someone has to replace the ~ 3,300 killed every day, over the last 40+ years, by CHOICE.
