seriously?
Foreign policy flubs aside...you gonna be mad that the rest of the modern world lowkey depends on us? :usure:

Lets be honest.

The shyt is fukking amazing when you think about it.

Europe doesn't have large standing armies because of us and this gives us unfettered access to their resources and capital. Shipping lanes are secured by US military might. International conflicts are resolved with US influence.

Yeah, being a dikk to people sucks, but with great power comes great responsibility.

What's the use of having all that power if you cannot defeat your enemies in Afghanistan (the Taliban). If you had to make deals with your enemies in Iraq (Sunni tribes in Anbar province, Shi'ite militias in Basra) in order to disgracefully exit. If the defeat of one foe leads to terrorism spreading across the Sahel in Sahara (militant Tuaregs fukking shyt up in Mali and feeding arms to the conflict in Northern Nigeria).

America has a lot of hard power, but unfortunately to a hammer - every problem is a nail.

Mind you, Kabul fell in like a month and a half.

Iraq fell both times in under a month.

We're GREAT at knocking shyt down.

The difference is NATION BUILDING.

Thats something only a few nations in history (largely before the industrial revolution) have ever been able to do.
