I keep hearing this repeated, but the link between military and the strength of the dollar is tenuous at best.

Oil priced in dollars. Countries forced to buy/hold dollars. Country tries to use another currency to buy their oil, they end up like Saddam or Gaddafi c/o the US military.

Brazil, India, China might be too much for US military. Or at least two of those.
