its obvious that we are not well liked in the world now more than ever. every world dominating empire/civilization has fallen in the past. i dont think we are much different. maybe we have gotten too comfortable over here in the states...what do you think?

Would you like to see America toppled? Do you even realize what would happen to the U.S let alone the world if the U.S. ceased to exist?Would you like Sharia law to take over? I certainly hope not.I would like to see the U.S. go on forever.If the U.S. was to be destroyed there would be no more united nations(although it is just a liberal figurehead building with not much authority over anything). The benefits that the U.S. provides are too many too list. I think you should worry if you are going to keep your freedoms that so many American patriots gave their lives for so you can ask idiotic questions like that.Do your part to protect the United States.

to be toppled we would have to be invaded right? I feel bad for whoever would try that. Even though the world doesn't realize it we are fighting a war for the better. We aren't running commiting genocide. I in no way see the US as world dominating, we retaliated to a cowardly attack on us. Although the war could've been managed a whole lot better, I still think it is one of the best managed wars we've been in. We've lost far more soldiers even 1 day of word war II. There is no peace without war.

If we continue down the road we are headed things are going to get tough and we are going ot be lonely. Our current administrations foreing policy is alienating us. We have been fighting a War on Terror since about day one in this administration. I'm not saying we shouldn't be trying to stop terrorism but I believe our methods of doing so are only goign to make things worse. The people that commit these acts, paricularly Al Qeda, are decieving people so that they carry out atrocities on bogus and perverted ideologies that they are helping. How we have responded a large scale attack by Al Qeda strengthed Al Qeda's abilties to decieve people that we are evil and opressive. We needed to respond in a manner where people hear the Al Qeda propaganda and question it rather than blindly siding with them. Thsi is especially relevant do to the fact that we are delaing with radical Muslim terrorists. Muslim ideology condemns violence and war except in self defence and completely condemns revenge. So I'm sorry to those who say that if we weren't fighting the wars we are right now we would be massacred by terrorist but honestly we are only making things worse. As I mentioned above our methods in delaing with the situation is also alienating us from our allies. This is going to inflict serious economic hardships on us eventually. We can not handle world issues in a black and white approach. I don't think we'll completely be toppled but thing will only get tougher for us. So unless the next administration takes on the job saying "Our bad" then we will be in big trouble. Until then watch our international relations go down the toliet and sepratist movements and civil wars spread liek wildfire. And to the person who asked about America living under Sharia law. Rules dictated in the Koran are not that far from the U.S. constitution. Most religions have been and continue to be perveted to jusitfy crimes.

Not toppled in the classic sense, but we will continue to lose influence, the traditional values of 'the American way' including liberties and economic dominance so that we become a second rate power while new super powers such as China & India rise to take our place.

I don't think the USA will topple....but I do think we've taken a punch to the gut.
It happens to every country eventually and it's our turn.
Maybe we've been too arrogant and this was bound to happen.
Nobody stays on top forever....plus it's lonely up there by yourself.

If we don't pray for Isreal and Gods chosen people, God will take his hand of protection away from us. We have become like Soddam and Gamoraah. You know what happened to them?

usa has too many strong allies - too many people rely on usa for their own security. China rely on exports too much they have a big defence force but are poorly trained. Iran and Iraq ? they have nothing - korea... all talk 10 missiles will send them broke.
