I have heard Dr. Paul say "build a stronger defense" many times in his presentations. His key point is sometimes missed: We can have a huge defense outlay and spread it out all over the World, thinner and thinner. Does this make us Stronger? Isn't wiser use of our resource the better answer? Heaven knows, the money spent in Iraq might have bought a "stronger defense" if deployed elsewhere....or even half of it...or a quarter. Until the recent NIE the idea of spreading ourselves even further by taking on Iran militarily seemed possible. Would we have been stronger by attacking them? With what we know now...and might have known then <g>.
