I assure you that the current behaviour of the US bears more than a passing resemblance to that of an "empire" rather than a "republic". And not just with me, but with most traditional US allies (not even going into the rest), as voiced by their leaders.

There is an article that I would love to post here on this very subject, in the current issue of "Prospect" magazine (UK), but I do not have the online subscription. Try to find it if you can, it is a good analysis of the current situation of the US, where it has become an empire but is in denial, wondering if it will repeat the mistakes of all past (failed) empires.
