3 / The problem? Most of the threats we face abroad are no longer conventional military threats. Syria, at it's heart, is a political, not military, quagmire. But we could only deploy 20 year old soldiers there, when we needed a massive diplomatic and political investment. — PolitiTweet.org

2 / The vast majority of our national security budget goes to the military and intel. We're talking over $600 billion year. To put that in perspective, we spend 20 times as much on the military and intel agencies as we do on diplomacy, democracy promotion and smart power. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ Russia, for example, uses oil, propaganda, bribery and intimidation, and cyber warfare to undermine U.S. interests. But we spend all our money on aircraft carriers and drones, not anti-corruption and anti-propaganda capabilities. In Syria and elsewhere, we're left helpless. — PolitiTweet.org
