Not likely in a straight up fight, our technology continues to advance faster than our nearest competor.

Why Bother? The Michael Moores will destroy us without any outside help. Plus America isn't so much a place as an Idea. Our dirt is pretty much the same as eveybody else's dirt. Nothing Majic about it. What sets America apart is an Idea put on Papaer 200 odd years ago. There is nothing secret about that Idea. I can post a URL to it. So When other nations figure this out and 'steal' our Constitution, Will they then be American? Capitalist Democracies have such an enormous social edge over other forms of government that eventually all nations will have a Capitalism oriented representative government. The PC term is globalization. War kills customers and voters. So Capitalist and Democratic Social systems don't want war, since war itself is an attack on the system's foundations. Unfortunatly we have a long ways to go before the violent men are controlled. "the general aim of the jihad and the mujahadeen is to strike at the foundations and infrastructure of the Western colonialist program or at the so-called world order.... Their defeat means, simply, the elimination of all forms of nation-states, such that all that remains is the natural existence familiar to Islam, the regional entity under the great Islamic state." -Osama bin Laden ObL understands that his system cannot survive any sort of contest against ours, so he is fighting with the one advantage a religous fanatic has, willpower. Like the Vietnamese '1 more minute, 1 more hour, 1 more day, 1 more week' camapaign, he knows he cannot win. So he just trys to survive and waits for us to quit. It doesn't matter how far you are ahead at halftime if you don't come back on the field and play the second half. Go Redskins!

The USMC didn't lose a single battle in Vietnam. The US lost the war politically, not militarily.
