What goals seem to have changed or expanded since the Cold War? Are some goals new? Explain your answer.

When the Cold War ended with the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989, many looked forward to a period of peace, with the world no longer subject to the threat of imminent nuclear destruction, and half the world's resources no longer being squandered on weapons of mass destruction. While the threat of World War Three is no longer as prominent as it was back then, things really haven't changed that much. Smaller hot wars like the ones in Iraq and Afghanistan took over from the Cold War, with the spending on weapons of war hundreds of billions of dollars a year higher than it was back then. Defense contractors are still the most profitable companies on earth. The world, despite the establishment of the United Nations after the end of the second World War, still doesn't have a practical mechanism for settling international conflicts short of war. And as the song by Dionne Warwick said, mothers still wonder, when their children grow up, both male and female children now, when some Commander-in-chief who never faced enemy fire himself will send them off to war.
