The New Era

Thirty years ago when the Cold War ended, after the Soviet Union collapsed we were the world’s dominant power, stronger than all our enemies combined.

Time passed.

We lost a long war in Iraq, fled Afghanistan – cracks appeared.

A year ago, Russia started a war in Europe. A week ago, Iran’s proxy Hamas started a war in the Middle East. And, in Asia, China’s rattling sabers threatening Taiwan.

The post-Cold War Era’s over. And a hard truth’s staring us in the face: In the New Era, with China, Russia, and Iran all aligned against us, America being the dominant power is a memory.
