Londinium Winter 92AD. Reflecting on military history, the speakers contrast the strategic genius of Hannibal and the eccentric audacity of WWII commando Lord Lovat with the current state of American forces. Germanicus asserts that the "marauder" spirit of figures like Andrew Jackson or the Normans has vanished from the U.S. military, which he describes as a "submissive subculture" focused on maintaining privilege rather than victory. He concludes that the American system is too ossified for reform, arguing that the nation is in a period of rupture that requires a "new empire" to survive.1910 CARTHAGE THEATER EXCAVATED
