It appears Adm. Mike Mullen is experiencing a smidge of ennui with the “longest era of non-stop warfare in the nation's history,” and longs for a new people to systematically slaughter.

The 21-page document is the first top-to-bottom rewrite of national military strategy in seven years - reflecting an official assessment that the Pentagon must officially adjust its focus beyond Afghanistan and Iraq to prepare for a broad range of future risks.

Troops may be out of Iraq by the end of this year. The "surge" to Afghanistan has peaked, with a transition of security duties to Afghans set for 2014.

But the American military will not be given any pause, the strategy says. So it will have to recover from 10 years of war and rebuild itself - but in stride, and in an era of tight budgets - as it seeks to defend against another terrorist strike and readies for potential threats in Asia and elsewhere in the Middle East, according to the strategy document.
