"I think when it's all over that the American people do already understand. Even if they can't explain it yet. That the Empire is over. That like every empire before, the British Empire, the Greek Empire, the Roman Empire, the Ottoman Empire, whatever you want to pick. They are born, they evolve over time, and then they decline. And nothing is more typical of the decline than leadership which undertakes military adventures that they no longer can afford, but the leaders don't want to face what it means that they can't afford it anymore."
