From: "Dave Ings" 

Now I don't claim any great expertise here, but I consistently see reports
that the US outspends just about everyone else put together on its
military, and has the most well trained, well equipped, and well organized
armed force in the history of the human race.

If this is even remotely true, how much credibility do statements like the
attached really have?
