Public opinion around the globe has turned strongly against the United States, making it difficult even for friendly national leaders to support us. Longtime allies are breaking away and publicly aligning with each other -- and against us.

Even Britain, our staunchest friend, is deeply reluctant to go to war at our side without United Nations support that we are unlikely to achieve, at least in the near term.

So while we cannot wait, we also cannot act. While we have bragged about our willingness to go alone, when we peer over that brink, we have so far not dared to jump.
What next?
