It was in the late 1980s, when Mikhail Gorbachev was steering the Soviet Union away from its rivalry with the West in a bid for a "new thinking" foreign policy, Georgiy Arbatov, director of the Soviet's Institute for U.S. and Canadian Studies, declared to the US:

"We will do the most horrible thing to you; we will leave you without an enemy."

We did find new enemies, though his statement was accurate about how far we have been willing to go, the reality of trillions spent on endeavors of world policing, easily a trillion/yr.
