Who was it that said watching the United States is like watching an epic movie. 

Oscar Wilde? Woody Allen? ...

 Just think: they've got an actor for a president, economic advisors called projectionists, even their latest defense strategy is named after a film: Star Wars. 

And why pick on that one? Why not something gentler, like Kramer Vs. Kramer?

 And of course, everywhere in the world to them is just a theater of operations... except when they're fighting in it. 

And then, it's a theater... of war.
