How Realistic is a New US War Strategy?

Fidel Castro made me think. Judging by past experiences, I will say that the US will change, and will become more aggressive. Why? Because they can.

Nevertheless Einstein realized very early in the Nuclear Era, that humanity has entered a new political paradigm, where traditional diplomatic and strategical thoughts have to change. One person that understood that, was Daniel Ellsberg when he leaked "The Pentagton Papers" to the NYT; and now a young officer that leaked the Iraqi war videos through Wikileaks: Pfc. Bradley Manning, understood that we cannot play by the old rules.

 I believe though, that most of us do not have the courage to ruin our careers, and I can see how we are going to a very difficult future.

It is realistic then, that the US will change its War Strategy.

Deficits be damned, a trillion dollars is nothing when looking at the stakes involved, the permanence of some countries, at the expense of others.

Which others?

Easy: Haiti, Iran, ....
