Why we can't win our wars

The point is that we're purposely picking on small fry who pose no threat to us whatsoever. Our arsenal was designed to take on another super-power, now we're attacking third-world countries and acting all high and mighty because we win.

Of course we win! That's like hunting rabbits with a bazooka.

Isn't that what powerful countries do, pick on small fries they don't like?

Wasn't this supposed to be about justice, not personal edification? You notice that as soon as North Korea had a nuke, we backed off because they might actually be able to cause us some damage.

We're no better than the bully on the beach that kicks sand in the face of the 97-lb weaklings.

Ahemm, what powerful countries do! I never claimed that the U.S. was working for justice, I happen to be a Machiavellian, I have no use for such abstract concepts in international politics.
