The era of globalization is here, and nobody can put that genie back in the bottle.

Nonsense, the US can adjust it's foreign policy objectives easily.

We have normalized relations with Vietnam, Russia has supposedly gone from the US's biggest boogey man to the sort of friend that has problems with civil liberties, Cuba will probably change in the next 20 years from the country with the major embargo into a nice US tourist destination.

There is no reason the US cannot decide that the battle for control of a patch of land in the desert should be fought by the stakeholders, and not by the US.
