Interestingly it was a lesson future POTUS's didn't forget. Warfare
fought by the US since Vietnam has been no holds bared and the results
are evident. The US military and the technology it possesses is second
to none in the world. It just isn't designed to be a police force or
nation builder.

The military forces of the United States have not faced a serious
adversary in more than 30 years.

And that is a bad thing?


No, of course not, but in the fact of that, making outrageous claims
about the abilities of forces not tested against serious adversaries
seems a bit absurd.


I am not an expert on this subject and neither are you. However, I have
no problem relying on the strength of our military regardless of the
opponent.


I am not an expert either but I've had the opportunity to witness some of
the yet to be used technology and future capabilities being developed that
is not readily available to the public. I have a lot of faith in our
ability to defend ourselves against anyone, unless it's one of Tom's
relatives from wherever.
