The Beginning of the End of US Dominance?
Following international news and analysis, it is clear that resentment towards the US policies is increasing all over the world - among regular people as well as among politicians.
Impermanence is intrinsic to all phenomena, including the power of nations. The current behavior and policies of the US government leads to not only increased resentment, but also stronger coalitions against the US policies - on a grassroots level as well as on the level of nations. It seems that the US is in the process of isolating themselves. If it continues in the longer run, they may - as they are fond of representing those not aligned with their views - increasingly render themselves "irrelevant".
It may be that this is the beginning of the end of US cultural, economic and military dominance. It will happen one way or another. The only questions are how and when.
