Great interview! I laughed out loud at this line:

Turns out that an American with sunglasses and listening to rock music, naming his tank “Anger Management” is a much, much deadlier guy than a suicide bomber.

I enjoyed that. Thanks.

>>>Everybody knows that the Reagan Administration, the first Bush Administration, is where the whole military dynamism started again. Mr. Clinton cut a third of the forces. If we had to fight this Gulf War in the same way that we fought the first, we wouldn’t have been able to do it, because he’d cut so much of those traditional forces.

To be exact, defense spending under Clinton was cut 37%, from 1992 to 2000. Spending for DOD went from 4.8% of GDP in 1993, to 3.0% of GDP in 2000.
Stats come from OMB figures

Hanson: No, for me the watershed event was when Carter allowed the Iranian hostage situation to go on. Then you had the Hezbollah bombings of the Marines in Khobar Towers...

I believe Dr. Hanson is mixing up Beirut with Saudi Arabia. The Beirut attack was against the Marine Battalion Headquarters at the airport in 1983. Khobar Towers was an attack against an Air Force barracks/dorm in Saudi Arabia in 1996.

Semper Fi,
