The power of an air force is terrific when there is nothing to oppose it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The world has nothing to fear from military ambition in our Government.
The Air Force has it far worse than the Navy in terms of existential fears, primarily due to the rapid rise and unbelievable dissemination of drones, where seemingly now every military unit has their own miniature air wing of what would have recently passed as toys.
Neither the Army nor the Navy is of any protection, or very little protection, against aerial raids.
The spirit of this country is totally adverse to a large military force.
There is no instance of a nation benefitting from prolonged warfare.
There's no national strategy to deal with combating terrorism and foreign fighters.
I have no interest in the trappings of power.
Airplanes are interesting toys, but of no military value.
Relying exclusively on air power has limits: planes are effective against fixed strategic targets, like petroleum storage, bridges, and command bunkers; but even then, air power rarely succeeds by itself in destroying a regime's ability to command and control its forces.
Air power will not defeat ISIS. It has not been able to deny ISIS freedom of maneuver and the ability to attack at will.
