    So like you just want us to wait until we get attacked first?

    The entire doctrine of the US military is to fight wars over there to prevent them from coming here.

      Why would anyone attack you? You’d have to spend decades destabilising the planet through pure greed to make people angry enough

      If the USA wasn’t starting and fighting wars it began without provocation , maybe there’d be less groups interested in “going there”.

      Besides, of the countries the USA considers an enemy, only Russia can ever “realistically” invade 'murica, and that’s assuming they only focus on Alaska. Even if USA only had 1/3 of its current military, it’d send the Russians packing due to logistical advantage.

      The only other route for Russia, China or anyone to invade is to use Cuba as a staging ground, which is not only very susceptible to a naval blockade, it’s also within range of fuckloads of USA missiles.
