<All I am saying is that our current defense spending (even including Iraq) is paltry by historical standards.> Our defense spending may be paltry historically, but we spend more than the next 20 countries COMBINED, yet (not counting terrorism) we are one of the least threatened countries on Earth from land bordering neighbors! Why do we need all the ICBM's, aircraft carriers, bombers, artillery tubes, tanks, etc. The answer is we DON'T. These weapon systems are useless against terrorists.
