You are the one who does not get it! Bottom line: no oil >>> no money >>> no hegemony power >>> a superpower has been. A smug and complacent guy like you will do well to realise the US is now up to its eyeballs in debt and might drown in it. China is going to be an economic superpower and rich and have lotsa money! That's why the US is jealous and worried and is already seeking ways to discredit and emasculate China! You believe all that propaganda shit in the movie Munich and Syriana? Am not surprised that you do because you are so dense. I have no hatred for Americans and Jews. I made fair comments. Too bad you were too dumbed down by your US education system and media to be able to understand. That's your fault and your problem. Hey, why is it that the US (a so-called #1 superpower) has so much trouble overcoming the poorly equipped enemy in Afghanistan and Iraq? It's been more than 4 soild years and counting and yet the end is still not in sight. What a joke! Around December 2001, (about 3 short months after 9/11) we heard that OBL was cornered, that victory was a cinch and that the US troops would be returning by Christmas for good, and folks were talking about taking out the champagne and glasses. Too bad and so very sad! The victory the US was so cocksure of turned out to be a winter mirage! Then around March 23rd 2003, there was considerable talk that victory for the war in Iraq would be a cinch and that the Iraqis would be welcoming the Americans with hugs and kisses and flowers and etc. Again the victory turned out to be a mirage! Enough said for American intelligence and unfounded optimism and unbridled cocksureness! The US is on the back of a tiger in Afghanistan and Iraq but she is very afraid to get down. .
