The USA is getting itself into a bind debt wise.

Message 18859104

That is a lot of debt to chalk up in one year. One wonders where the money is going to come from to pay it off.

Pacifying and using foreign countries assets as a source of revenue would be a concern of mine. Far more dangerous a thing to do then just leave whatever WMD's lying where they are imho.

Message 18852643

Lets face it. Practically any country can and does make weapons to defend itself. Most of them are WMD's these days. Who wants to compete with the USA on conventional warfare terms? You take out one nuclear scientist, but they are probably ten a penny these days. Getting them to work on something else is the key to peaceful co-existence.

Not just trying to be an A/H. Just facing up to the facts as I see them.
