> Pretty sure anyone who fights the US military finds out pretty fast it’s a good military.

I am not sure about that. Iraq, Afghanistan, to name the new ones and Vietnam to name an old one.

Sure you can take an easy/undisciplined target like Maduro. But many armies in the world can also do that. Another thing that has to be recognized: alternative warfare (ie: terrorism) is a legitimate form of warfare regardless of its morality. You can't, in my opinion, claim military supremacy while not being able to contain these other risks.

Another upcoming one: cyber-warfare.
