Key Takeaways
Terrorist and criminal groups long for a world in which the U.S. turns inward and reduces its military to a regional force versus one capable of global action.
Our military today is two-thirds (or less) the size it was when the United States led the world in standing against the Soviet Union.
Defense of our country and our way of life is one of the very few obligations specifically assigned by our Constitution to the federal government.
