I understand this is going on. But I don't think it's pragmatic. It looks like we want to play out the last decades of the Roman Empire. IMHO next Roman empire isn't going to be built on killing people.
In time, the everyday Joe is going to be able to confound traditional governance. IMO the next Rome is going to be riding a wave that has little to do with national interests or geography. Trust me, I'm no hippy. I just see that the writing is on the wall that the military industrial complex is not what it used to be. The US is probably going to follow it down the drain. We are spending a lot of resources sewing redcoats.
