No, we are not on top anymore. Came and went. We have allowed political correctness to trump all else: survival, jobs, safety, economy, and our very existence. All the 70s hippies and celebrities cost us dearly, like ripples through a pond we have all allowed a small majority to dictate what is right and wrong. We could have won Vietnam decisively, the Gulf War, and now Iraq and Afghanistan. Vietnam we should have burnt those jungles to the ground and scoured every last vestige of NLF out and beaten them so badly into submission that they would not threaten anyone for a thousand years. The Gulf was fine, but the second time around we should have given the Kurds authority and let them rule. In Afghanistan we should have reduced those mountains to rubble and trapped all the cockroaches inside, burnt the poppy fields and scoured the earth so that none could ever grow there again. We should have let Israel go into Gaza and utterly obliterated anyone even thinking of taking up arms against the Jewish people.

But nope, a few celebrities and political figures changed the way one generation thought and now they are all grown up.

Sadly true. Though our troops have prevailed on the battlefield, we have failed to obtain unconditional surrender from all but a couple of small conflicts (Grenada, Panama/Noriega). We continue to play a winning hand badly at the political level.
