Neocons such as Eli David are once again promoting the idea that America is great because
we can bomb the crap out of foreign nations. I recall the same nonsense from when
George W. Bush was president. It's his post-9/11 war fever all over
again.
America has serious domestic problems. Violent street crime. Domestic
turmoil. Public schools that graduate illiterates ... creating an
ever greater reliance on foreign workers and foreign imports ...
making our supply chains ever more vulnerable ... making it harder
for young people to find jobs that pay a living wage ... making it
harder for them to marry and raise families ... plus our rising
national debt, inflation, a looming depression ... laced with our
cultural and moral decay as our social fabric comes apart, and, well,
one could go on.
But we can still
bomb the crap out of whoever we want. (Or whoever Israel wants us to
bomb.)
And really, isn't
that what makes America Great?
(Okay, I didn't think so either.)
