We have a lower percentage of our population in the military and a lower percentage of our GDP devoted to military spending than we did in almost all of the 40s, all of the 50s, all of the 60s, all of the 70s, all of the 80s, and some of the 90s. Hardly a case of classic "imperial overstretch".

It is when you consider that during the 40, 50s, 60s, 70s etc we were dealing with a powerful enemy, and in the new millennium, only a Saddam.
