Abstract: [Abstract from article]This month's column will be a bit unusual in that it does not look forward so much as look back. The author writes as the conflict in Iraq is winding down and the considerable military might of the United States and other coalition forces was able to bring down the regime of a despot in the Middle East. Whether this was a correct use of force is not a debate for this column, but rather the column reflects on how the developed world, and the United States, in particular, have the technological ability and resources to extend their influence globally. It certainly takes great leadership, but it also takes great capabilities in manpower, materials and manufacturing.
