21. The USA
could exercise greater power in the world today by being an agent of progress. We have the potential to have dispute resolution as a common practice within the context of the UN. Obviously, there are times when the ability to respond militarily is necessary. But the current mess in Iraq is a strong example of the consequences of the misuse of military strength. The NY Times had a few pages of the second 1000 US soldiers killed in Iraq yesterday, along with articles about a few of them. They were betrayed by the administration's lies that brought the nation to war.
