In practice, it means that other regional powers, such as China and Russia attempting to expand their sphere’s of influence, now pose a greater security challenge to the United States and its interests than international terrorist organizations do.

The idea is that the international system has shifted from being unipolar to multipolar, and the United States needs a new grand strategy to fit that paradigm.

Thank you for reporting me. I knew you were weak and couldn’t stand on your own two brain cells. Looser.

Do you prefer Venezuela or Cuba? Denounce your American citizenship and I will fly you free of charge to either county. Send me proof of your declination of US citizenship and let me know where I should fly your dumb weak stupid ass. We don’t need or want you hear. We have no use for your small brain and big mouth. Bye!!

"Denounce your citizenship..." The word is renounce. Donald Trump is not the breadwinner of capitalism, perhaps you're confused. You seem to have TOS - Trump Obsessive Disorder. No matter what is being spoken about, you will defend the President to the death. No one was speaking about capitalism, so Cuba and Venezuela are irrelevant. You're just a lame troll who probably works for Russia.

Leaders putting security over liberty is our greatest threat right now.

There’s definitely a compelling argument for this and we should take interstate competition seriously, but I disagree with the conclusion that it’s a bigger threat than terrorism. The reality is we are far less likely to have a nuclear war with Russia or China than we are to have a terrorist obliterate New York or Washington. This is especially true as North Korea and Iran become fully-fledged nuclear states given their proclivity to selling weapons of mass destruction to terrorists and petty despots around the world.

😂😂😂😂 Would you care to elaborate, Laserbeam?

2 tiny brain cells is all I need to deal with you.

Go spread you faux patriotism elsewhere, McVeigh.

We know the type of tool you have use for 🍆

I’m surprised you can still type on SOH while you’re tooling.

Your exact phraseology is what people said during the Civil War, during women's suffrage, and during the Civil Rights Movement. There has not been a point in history where conservatives have been happy that this country has adapted, socially or financially. It's in your name. Perhaps the people "complaining" are genuinely in tune with reality, and you're being left behind. In any case, it doesn't matter to me - history won't remember progressivism the way it remembers conservatism. Our country is a progressive one, and to use your rhetoric, either get on board or get out of the way. It's up to you.

What the hell exactly does that mean anyway? A fancy word for another simple concept? Plain English please.

"Please stop attacking people and demonstrating your inadequate understand of the English language..." Guess you don't know what a verb is.

I don't love Joe Biden, but he's certainly better than President Trump. That's all I'm commenting on that matter. You are incompetent and can barely formulate a sentence that is grammatically or structurally correct. I am not going to keep up this charade any longer. It's clear I'm speaking to a wall, or perhaps a child.

"Stop hurting me, don't hurt me, don't reply to the words I say!" Grow up. You're the one who commented in the first place. You're insufferable.

Economic ware fare from especially China, is not our biggest threat now. It’s been our biggest threat for a long time.

From the Summary of the 2018 National Defense Strategy of the United States of America:

“Today, we are emerging from a period of strategic atrophy, aware that our competitive military advantage has been eroding. We are facing increased global disorder, characterized by decline in the long-standing rules-based international order—creating a security environment more complex and volatile than any we have experienced in recent memory. Inter-state strategic competition, not terrorism, is now the primary concern in U.S. national security.”

The rest of the document is linked in the poll.

It always has been.

You just did a whole little thing all by yourself there, didn't you? Unless you were talking to someone who blocked me of course. If you did in fact just post a stream of 6 incoherent comments unprovoked, I rest my case. Nothing but a troll - all talk, no substance. Have a nice night, I'm not responding to this thread anymore. It's clear we have nothing substantive to discuss.

Time to review Sun-Tzu’s “The Art of War” and Musashi’s “Book of Five Rings” again. Economic warfare is as decisive as the shooting kind and further reaching.

But of course! What else would a puppet of the Russian government do? They're specifically designed to disseminate disinformation.

You are correct. Renounce is the correct term. Your idea of America is 180 degrees from reality. No one is holding you hostage here. There are 195 countries in the world today. Please stop bitching about the US and go find your happy place. We really have no use for you here. Bye!!

Although it is a factor, it is based on economic domination, something the U.S. has been at for a very long time. Don’t be fooled by the 11 page DOD report, everything is about the context and control of “The Mighty Dollar” and Terrorism/Terrorist ideology has the same purpose.

I tend to agree. The terrorist threat is overstated, and could be ended tomorrow if we withdrew from the Middle East and cut off aid to Israel.

Domestic terrorists are the reason I can’t leave my house for reasons other than those that have been approved by the government?

In other words, STFU!!!!!!

👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻

The binary thinking there is not surprising: if you don’t like my guy, leave. 🙄. Real patriotism is always questioning authority and working to make things better.

But I’m sure you’ll be leaving America when the Left takes over, right?

Use you 2 tiny brain cells to move really far away from me. We have no use for your whine and cheese party in the US. I’ll probably see you in next year through my scope as you are trying to steal my food stores. I hope to see you soon you loser fucktard.

Please stop replying to what I say. You are an uneducated tool of which I have no use.

Neither. Rogue nuclear states.

I buy and sell tools like you everyday. Thin skinned. Dumb as shit. No life experiences. I sell your broke ass daily. There are millions of broke ass tools like you. I sell them everyday and make millions. I should say thank you. Thank you!

Your a weak tool. I’m surprised SOH still allows your weak and uneducated posts to be placed. I’ll text Tony on Monday. You’re wasting storage for your 2 bit brained comments.

Typically socially unsuccessful and racially isolated young men have been coerced into things like white nationalism as a means of providing belonging and a way to make sense of adversities (blame the Jews) this is done mainly online. Examples would be the Pittsburgh synagogue and The murder and beatings in Charlottesville. The fbi has recognized that these groups are rapidly growing in numbers.

That’s because you a retarded useless piece of shit. If you want to visit me I will fly you free of charge if you want to meet me. I’ll pick you up at the airport. I’ll fly you one way free of charge. Don’t even pack a toothbrush. You won’t be here that long you weak ass tool.

I will fly your Blue ass too. You are retarded. High school education. It’s obvious. You can’t hide from your obvious limitations. I’ll pick your uneducated ass apart 14 ways from Sunday. Let me fly you to Cuba. No charge. One way. If not please STFU! You offer nothing here. I troll dumb asses like you. Weak ass uneducated libtards. Cuba will be no charge to you. Let me know.

Go. Just go. If you like Russia I have a one way ticket for there as well. Fly your dumb ass along. See ya!!

You are confused dumb ass? I feel sorry for your family when the burglar comes in and you throw a shoe at him while he takes your wife. Enjoy you fucktard!!

Check out the link in the poll.

Aw, fedbois afraid we might try to make it on our own?

Please stop attacking people and demonstrating your inadequate understand of the English language. Your best candidate for president is a finger fucking hair smelling senile old piece of shit. I’m not mad at you. I just laugh at your party’s incompetence in providing a credible alternative to the current president. Direct your anger at the DNC. They nominate old Joe. I had nothing to do with it. I just sat back and watched. Then I laughed. Cheers!!

Lol what

Why are you such a loser? Joe is a loser since 1998 presidential run. You like losing or are you just a loser. Take the government tit out of your mouth and be a man. I’ll fly your broke ass to Cuba or Venezuela tomorrow free of charge one way. Just let me know. If not then STFU!!

I disagree... Unless we're talking about California.

Blue please let me fly you to Cuba or Venezuela. One way ticket to your paradise. Your bitching and moaning is getting old here. You offer nothing. Let me fly your broke ass hand out sorry ass away. No charge. The United States is greater than you. You are not needed here. Let me know. Planes leave everyday for your socialist utopia. I will send you there at no charge.
