This aggressive strategy may good good and macho, but it means having our soldiers stationed virtually everywhere around the world at once and being responsible for all troublemakers. It is a hugely expensive strategy, spreads our forces too thin, makes us very imperialist-looking and invites more terrorism out of resentment against us. Ironically Bush promised to be a humble isolationist president during the debates. He either lied or changed, or a combination. Frankly, I think we should start closing foreign bases and completing the post Cold War transition.

I tend to agree.......the cost is not worth all the fall out.
