The United States accounts for 40 percent of all military spending on earth.  The US alone spends more money on the military ($1.6 trillion) than the next 7 largest countries combined (China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, UK, India , France, Japan).  There is no other country that is even within sight of having the military might of the US.  No country would even attempt to try and cross the oceans to attack us.  

The fear mongers have gotten to people like you because they want to spend more and more on the military.  

I agree with this.

Heck, just do a quick search on the number of aircraft carriers per country.

Also.... military technology that we had 10 years ago would scare people, even now.
