Mostly for the conservatives on the board.
How should America be projecting strength abroad?
What should they be doing?
Desired policies are welcomed, clearly.
Very simple...
Return all US military forces to US territory.
Close all foreign embassies and other diplomatic centers
Remove all foreign diplomats from US territories
Aim offensive nuclear weapons at every foreign capitol on the planet
Issue the following warning globally: If you or any of your citizens stick your noses in Us business, well level your capital without a warning or second thought.
Under this philosophy, the capitals of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Afghanistan and Pakistan would have been leveled by nuclear attach on September 12, 2001.
