The US has over 800 military bases. I think that world war thing is a wrap.
People always bring up China and Russia cause those are our biggest rivals but compared their armies , bases, and weaponary to ours....shyt ain't really a contest. Our military budget is bigger than the next 30 biggest budgets combined or some crazy shyt.
I think Russia and China smartly realized they don't have a chance at a traditional war so they focus on spying and hacking.
The US can declare war on random countries whenever they want and occupy them without anyone doing shyt (Iraq). When China or Russia even sail thru disputed waters or cross fukking borders it's a big deal (south China sea or Crimea)
It's a reason for that
