The United States suffers from ...Excellent points.<br /><br />The United States suffers from another problem...seapower has been taken for granted. American policy-makers have been preoccupied with fighting a succession of land wars against largely landlocked opponents. Whether it be the Soviet Union or Iraq, "the Threat" has been defined as almost entirely land-based.<br /><br />Today, the strategic environment is shifting.
