The author examines the latest US Department of Defense document, its military posture, and its propaganda which sees threats everywhere to paint a very Orwellian picture that resembles "something like an American Thousand-Year Reich".
To Washington, any country capable of resisting American attack, or of "defying" American commands (whether under a UN Security Council figleaf or not) is by definition a "threat." And any country inflicting significant losses on US military forces, in the process of defending itself against American military attack, is guilty of aggression (against US attempts to "defend our freedom," one presumes).
