Military spending, incl that of the the US is always justified by "defensive purposes".

Back in Europe we have always watched in awe the mass paranoia of the American public. Here we were, within a stones throw of Russian tanks for all these years, and it was the US who consistently outspent all the western allies both in absolute and relative terms.

What were you guys thinking of? That Canada or Mexico would attack the US, beat its forces and rape all the mothers and daughters.

Panama and Grenada were valiantly defeated, against all odds. That was a good thing otherwise they would have occupied the States no doubt. Now we should write these mails in Spanish.
