Hindsight is 20/20, none of us thought that the Soviet Union would fall as soon as it did. Not a single country, intelligence service, or newspaper did. So we saw Hussein, bin Laden and others as way to kill the Bear. We didn't create the Ayatollah of Iran, while we may have ignored the warning signs because we were focused on not glowing in the dark, we didn't create him. Like it or not, politicians in general take a very Machiavellian approach in dealing with affairs. They're more interested in getting things done now and the aftershocks be damned, we're the United Fucking States of America, we can handle anything. Well unfortunately when you cut back you're military and Human Intelligence you essentially tie your National Security hands behind your back. I can see where Moore is coming from, but on the other hand, he's a nut like Ann Coulter who is just out to make a buck and I hope people realize that.
