E67: RISE AND FALL OF EMPIRES

Another great interview with DOD consultant and naval power expert Jerry Hendrix. Jerry's latest publication in Foreign Policy magazine is titled, "Sea Power Makes Great Powers", discusses the direct relationship between and empire's naval fleet and their influence on the world. This does not bode well for the US as our naval forces shrink. This is a far reaching interview that hits on very timely actions by the Chinese and US in the South China Sea. A must watch for any student of geo-politics and Brzezinski's, "The Grand Chessboard". Enjoy!
