Sorry I posted too fast...the point I was making was that the country is not strong morally...the majority of citizens don't believe in their country at all...especially after the collapse of the soviet union...militarily it may be strong now...but without the people's trust and beliefs to back it up really it's like a bear with a broken paw...the point I'm making is that America is like ancient Athens in a way I guess...the people fight for their country because they believe in democracy and wish to preserve it...and that makes all the difference in the long run...
