>>Our next war in the Gulf will mark a historical tipping point - the moment when Washington takes real ownership of strategic security in the age of globalization. << I've read similar arguments made by Ralph Peters on the US Army War College site, for example: >>Spotting the Losers: Seven Signs of Non-Competitive States << carlisle-www.army.mil Their arguments are presented in a way I find rather disturbing. How did globalization find its way into the pantheon along with Mom, apple pie, baseball, the Constitution and the rule of law? From Peters: >>We have seen the future, and it looks like us.<< Yikes. But I don't WANT to be assimilated.
