Mitt Romney, himself, already deployed a well-oiled. It's back to America "strong". Mitt Romney takes the foot against the isolationist tendencies of the party (not a question of "back into his shell" and deploy "white flag").

Opposite view also of American society, weary of war (10 years now in Afghanistan). Maybe Romney thinks that it will pay electorally to give people a feeling of conquering America. The two parliamentarians consider that the authorities and the beneficiaries do not have the best weapons to combat piracy and counterfeiting outside the United States. They think in particular to sites hosted abroad and whose name top level domain is managed by a management organization located in the U.S. The seizure of the servers or the blocking of the domain name is; therefore, more complicated.
