America can’t stop tons of drugs and weapons getting delivered into America every day

As if they even want to. War on Drugs is very effective method of controlling population (and was engineered by Nixon administration first) and padding the prison slavery. Also, as affairs like Iran-Contras proven, letters are deep in this.

Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq et al have proven that despite their military and control of the monetary machinery, the USA is not invincible. Mao called them a "paper tiger" decades ago, and he was right. Civilized countries need to stop believing and perpetuating their hype.

Oh well America can be beat so I guess the only righteous path here is to subject your own population to potential decades of American bombing and embargoes in pursuit of that goal.
