    They're definitely smarter imperialists. If getting rid of the draft was the biggest stroke of genius for US empire because it removed the domestic costs for starting a war, then being able to conduct your interventions solely via remote airstrikes is the next biggest. And it's awful because the NATO-led bombing campaigns of Libya were absolutely just as devastating in terms of humanitarian consequences on civilians as the Iraq war was.

      Honestly I think the reason Democrats seem so week policy wise compared to Republicans is because they put all their resources into building imperialist concensus, something the Republicans really struggle with.
