YES! we need a strong US Military to defend the USA.
I for one, am fed-up with losing friends and their kids that joined the military to defend the USA... in 2nd & 3rd world countries that have ZERO return on US National Security. eg. Somalia Oct 1993->???.
For the last 50+ years our Military has spent more time defending or playing policeman to 2nd & 3rd world countries of the world, than securing our own borders.
So while the Military Industrial Complex is seeking sales to the US Military and has a long $$$ DONATION $$$ and after office/family employment track record for DC types.
My question simply is:
If the Pentagon gets more $$$$, is it just going to be used for a more DC directed Global Police work? Or, will there be a mandate requiring CONUS Security and Defense use only?

The world has been at the hair-trigger likelihood of nuclear war since the early 1960's. Why is this news now? Go to Wikipedia and look up Stanislav Petrov and Vasily Arkhipov, for starters.

[REGNUM] The media published an audio recording of the negotiations between the dispatcher of the Palana airport and the crew of the An-26 that crashed on 6 July.
On the audio, you can hear that negotiations are being conducted calmly, in a normal mode. The dispatcher did not recommend the crew to descend into the sea.
“I do not recommend going down to sea ,” the dispatcher said to the audio.
"We are at sea and are not descending," a crew member replied.
Further, the board went down. The dispatcher and the crew member talked about each action. The board dropped to 800 meters and then went down to 600 meters.
Then the crew no longer answered the dispatcher's question: "What time will you be landing?"
As reported by IA REGNUM , the An-26 plane crash occurred on July 6, when the plane flying from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky to Palana crashed into a rock during landing. Parts of the aircraft are scattered along the coast, the tail has fallen into the sea. Onboard there were 28 people: 22 passengers, including two minors, and six crew members.
