i like this concept
Ok, but i have the theory :
If you conquer someone by the money , is much better than Military way....
that's because of this "big stick policy" the world have the great number of extremists and some Modal Rebels(ie:American/Israel haters,assholes at all.)
BTW, don't forget, we have extremists in both sides ,so "Fire at will" isn't a good way to solve the problems, it's a short time solution, but i think its the worse of the options,in long time will spent a lot of money.
I take as a base, the NGC documentary that i watched about the 90's North Korea Crisis ,the Clinton administration just discard the diplomatically option and put the strength at first option!
Luckily someone got a brilliant idea to open a dictionary and found the beautiful word: "Diplomacy" .
I don't like to say something about that, because it's not my business, the country and weapons aren't mine, but it's what i think hehe.
