Let's Americans not try and play the martyr. We are everywhere in the world for the following reason:
1. We could afford to in 1950 and thought we needed to and were justified to stick a foot in every place where we imagine the Soviets could install a communist government and rally the place against our "free world"
2. Now that we could no longer afford to, we act like Napoleon and Hitler at their resource's end before Moscow. Inspite of ever more pressing need to retreat to more defensible winter quarters, we are smitten by the glorious highwater mark that iour rising tide had briefly wetted 1990-2000, and shovel in ever more of our dwindling resources to try to shore up our tide just a little bit long out of the fear and when it receed, it would receed for good.
