Why we are losing - a long view

• Our current situation is not ONLY because of terrorism - it was happening long before 9/11/01

  • Strategic response is vital to the long-term survival and prosperity of our society.
  • There is a very close relationship between social changes and the strategic situation.

• Strategic response takes a long time

  • The commitment of resources has been poor for at least 25 years, and it will take that long to really fix it
  • The commitment of resources today is pathetic and the perception of top decision-makers is unrealistic
