Rumors of War

Pentagon says military lead over Russia, China ‘eroding’ - UPI.com
UPI reports: "A new defense strategy released by the Pentagon on Friday takes aim at Russia and China, directing the U.S. military to turn its attention to those nations instead of focusing primarily on Islamist militants and 'rogue' countries. [...] The document is classified, but an 11-page summary is available that outlines areas of focus for the U.S. going forward, which includes strengthening military alliances from the Middle East to Asia and building a larger, more agile military."

Comment: This is good news. I'm glad to hear that the U.S. is back in the business of strengthening alliances. I was starting to worry. It should be policy to support allies and worry our enemies and not the other way around.
