Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel has unveiled a defense spending plan that, in his words, will mean “We’re entering an area where America dominance in the seas, in the sky and space can no longer be taken for granted.”
One of Mr. Hagel’s predecessors, former Vice President Dick Cheney, helped explain why Team Obama would want to achieve such a dubious goal. He told Sean Hannity Monday, “It’s…a reflection of the notion that somehow, a strong America, well equipped, with a strong military, is a danger to international peace and stability. And just exactly the opposite’s true.”
He added: “I think if history teaches any lesson, it’s that the world’s a safer, more stable place when the United States is strong and is prepared to use that strength when necessary.”
Amen.
