２４日付の米紙ニューヨーク・タイムズは、ヘーゲル国防長官が現在５０万人規模の米陸軍兵力を今後数年で４４万～４５万人に削減する方針を決めたと報じた。実現すれば、米陸軍の規模は第２次大戦（１９３９～４５年）の本格化に備え、軍備増強に着手した１９４０年以来の水準に縮小する。２４日発表予定の国防予算方針で明らかにするとみられる。
　国防総省当局者らによると、厳しい財政事情のほか、地上軍を投入したイラク、アフガニスタンの「二つの戦争」に幕引きするオバマ大統領の政治公約が背景にある。
　縮小後は「いかなる敵にも対応できるが、外国への長期の駐留兵力は維持できない」体制となるとしている。
　同紙によると、新方針には最新鋭ステルス戦闘機Ｆ３５の開発予算を維持することを盛り込む一方、旧ソ連の戦車への攻撃を念頭に置いた空軍のＡ１０攻撃機全廃や、Ｕ２偵察機の退役も打ち出す見通し。世界の警察的役割を果たしてきたアメリカが、その役割を果たせない状況になっていきそうですね。自国のみに生きるアメリカは神の恵みから外れて衰退の方向に向かっていくかもしれませんね。
