"Americans need to understand that these wars of choice, these interventions of choice, have been both unnecessary, counterproductive, strategically self-defeating and infinitely too expensive for what we can actually afford."
Ret. Army Col. Douglas Macgregor
Concise and to-the-point article clearly highlighting the possibility of defense cuts and the political obstacles in its way.
I have not heard of this guy before, but his ideas seem similar to a man named Chalmers Johnson who wrote a lot about the military-industrial-complex & the blowback effects of interventionism. But thats another story.
