America is not united, and the danger of a new civil war is at hand:

America is at the brink of a new civil war. But keep your head buried in the sand.
BTW.. the American soldiers you see worldwide are only there because the money is flowing.
(Emphasis added)
Which has pretty much been the case with all soldiers in all times and in all places throughout human history. Armies are expensive.

America have been losing wars since WW2 despite its massive gun-power. The wars it did manage to relatively win was fought by proxy -i.e others fought on its behalf-; following the Nixon doctrine which stated that America should change its military intervention to exclude soldiers on the ground and limit things to financial/assisting in defense:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixon_Doctrine
Quote:Nixon stated that "the United States would assist in the defense and developments of allies and friends", but would not "undertake all the defense of the free nations of the world."[3] This doctrine meant that each ally nation was in charge of its own security in general, but the United States would act as a nuclear umbrella when requested.
