World Power

For him, to bend is to break
(Stubborn weakness he calls strength)
He's got it made, make no mistake
(Hide the rust beneath new paint)
His smile is his most sinister feature
Profit proves his point of view
(Talks so loud it must be true)
--Paper Tiger, All

If the U.S. is the most powerful nation on earth, then why are simple weapons like IEDs controlling the tempo of operations in Iraq?

If the U.S. military can't handle or neutralize this threat, then how would they handle nuclear issues caused by, say, the disintegration of Musharrif's Pakistan?

While we throw precious resources away on GWB's pipe dream, the U.S. stands unprepared to handle a larger threat. U.S. leaders are pushing the American public down a primrose path.
