Just off the top of my head:
  • America compromised on national security issues when it allowed China for 30 years to ... steal intellectual property.
  • America compromised on national security issues when George Bush ended North Korean sanctions in 2007
  • America compromised on national security issues when it signed the Iran nuclear treaty, after making one concession after another.
  • America is compromising on national security issues right now with the faracical peace negotiations with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
I'm sure we can come up with a bunch more if we tried.

All this is true, and these were all mistakes.

Mistakes? Yes. But why they were made is far more important. All were driven by money concerns to one degree or another. All were the result of even worse mistakes further in the past, though the willingness to give China free reign seems almost uniquely tied to commercial interests in the 1st world. Greed is greed.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
