Not a defeatist attitude, but an observation of an all to often reality in America today.
Unfortunately the West has become very PC.
Europe wants to bash us but let us spill our blood for everyoe.
The Mooselims want us dead.
The Jews living here want the Democrats. They don't even care what happens to Israel.
The Germans want to inherit the world by sitting on the sidelines and cheering.
The Russians want to ally with China to teach us a lesson.
Our own country dislikes itself and does everything possible to ruin the freedoms it enjoys.
Maybe we should just pull back all of our troops worldwide, (why do we still maintain troops in Germany?) declare that our country has decided to become neutral, act like Switzerland and leave the policing of the world to someone else for a change?
We could use the money we save to build incredible defensive and offensive eapons that no one would ever dare to attack us.
Just a thought.
