America has become an imperial power that aims to invade and dominate the weak countries. This tendency has created global insecurity and led America to lose wars.
In terms of natural resources and firepower, America dominates like no other country. It has the largest and most flexible military, the most weapons, and the most devices to spy on and kill people from afar. At this point, it would seem American soldiers can win any war. But since 1945 America has fought a lot of wars and lost almost every one of them. In Vietnam, eventually communist forces unified all of Vietnam. America’s decades-long and hugely costly intervention in Afghanistan ended with the Taliban back in power. America’s quick and easy invasion of Iraq eventually turned into a mess with a protracted and expensive effort to rebuild the country and restore some sort of order. American superiority during the wars didn’t really solve anything. There was obvious American frustration with the futility of the wars and, in the process, the American military killed, and continues to kill, a lot of innocent people. There was a disconnect between America’s political aims and the aims of people in the countries America invaded.
The US must consider what political outcomes will flow from her military victories and what will be the case on the first day after she achieves military dominance
