So, they can spend a huge amount of money and not get much bang for their buck.

One afternoon in Afghanistan, a single US spotter called in air strikes on enemy positions and killed 3,000 Taliban. Do the math.

Hello Maurice, <<military budgets ... I don't know what the proportions are>> 40% of world spending on military, may not be worth much against deliberately designed and +-50% calculated asymmetric warfare within context of total civilization war meant to end in utter exhaustion. We will find out the answer in due course.
