It's official, world conquest is the goal.

The document, titled "The National Security Strategy of the United States," sketches out a far more muscular and sometimes aggressive approach to national security than any since the Reagan era.

It includes the discounting of most nonproliferation treaties in favor of a doctrine of "counterproliferation," a reference to everything from missile defense to forcibly dismantling weapons or their components. It declares that the strategies of containment and deterrence -- staples of American policy since the 1940s -- are all but dead.

There is no way in this changed world, the document states, to deter those who "hate the United States and everything for which it stands."


........
One of the most striking elements of the new strategy outlined is its insistence "that the president has no intention of allowing any foreign power to catch up with the huge lead the United States has opened since the fall of the Soviet Union more than a decade ago."

"Our forces will be strong enough," the document states, "to dissuade potential adversaries from pursuing a military buildup in hopes of surpassing, or equaling, the power of the United States."


We will now have a moment of silence for the passing of liberty and democracy. Brought to you by:
