The best warrior is not always the strongest. A good warrior will look for an oportunity to use his opponants strenghts against him. However a strong warrior who also exploits the resources and strenghts of his enemy will be very difficult indeed to defeat. The US is strong militarily and employs some very smart tactics, however is the US Russias enemy? Is the US using the Start negotiations to weaken Russia? Is the US planning on gaining access to Russian radar systems in order to find and exploit weaknesses? The US is without doubt a 'warrior nation' with an economy centred around its military. They have also been involved (either directly or indirectly) in every major conflict this century. They currently spend more on thier millitary than almost the rest of the world combined. They are also pursuing an expantionist policy. If I were in the Russian military I would ensure that I kept the US under very close observation indeed, and gave them no access at all to any sensitive defensive systems.
