Glenn Reynold's new Tech Central Station article builds nicely on Victor Davis Hanson's thesis in his best-selling book. Yes, the USA has weapons and communications systems that give it unique advantages. Those capabilities don't just exist in a vacuum, though - they're closely tied to a specific culture that makes them possible.
