How Many Wars is America Fighting? (It's More Than You Think)
instead of strengthening ourselves and helping to build a world safe for diversity, we've chosen to build an empire, or something all to close. and if we continue the quest for dominance, the consequence will get even worse. and we will all be weaker for it. pursuing military dominance has generated unnecessary enemies. these enemies, in turn, have made dominance costlier and more dangerous. of all the times the united states has used armed force since 1946, roughly 80 percent of those interventions have taken place after 1991. that's right: the united states has used force more frequently after the cold war than during it, and it's not even close. despite the promise of "peace though strength," peace has not come. over decades, america has perfected the art of isolating itself from the wars it wages. on tv, wars play out like simple dramas: us versus them, with no blood and no casualties, unless they're inflicted by the enemy.
