There was a time when the world respected and feared the United States. They respected our power and they feared us because they knew that we could unleash Hell on them in the blink of an eye and the push of a button.
Once given that power, we have become afraid to use it and our enemies know this and it emboldens them.
It is time that the United States remind the world that while we might be a paper tiger, we are a paper tiger with nuclear teeth.
