Given that Australia and Isreal are probably the only nations that are not seriously annoyed with America's world policing. Do you think it is only a matter of time before the world as a whole like China, EU and Russia are glue together to close the doors on US trade and ability to move around? America doomed? I think if you get another Bush that will happen!

Americas only problem is the Bush admimistration and the pig headed attitude of the war mongerers,so no the americans will always have friends and with the way the world is we need them and their military might more than ever.

China will never ever close trade with the U.S,and anyone who thinks they will are fools. Their entire economy is dependent on us. They already have millions of people starving to death do you think they will turn away from the country that buys more products from them then any other country in the world?....and Russia please they haven't been a real super power since the late 80's They are doing everything they can under Putin's rule to stay away from the U.S that they can,but the fact is they haven't been near as prosperous as a nation since Putin came to power,and distanced himself the the U.S (part of his old KGD paranoia). when Putin is gone their next leader will have better relations with the U.S. as long as it isn't an old KGB officer again. As long as we have fairly good relations with Britain, Germany, Canada, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Isreal, Poland, France (which we do once again now that they have a conservative leader again) Spain, Italy,and Japan. Russia,and China mean nothing the only thing we have to fear from them is their military, their economys need us plain and simple.

I think you are exaggerating a little, off course many countries
are annoyed by current US policies, but in general ( at least over
here in Europe ) the distinction between the administration and
the people of America is being made .
Support of Israel will always keep you unpopular in Muslim countries but that's nothing new.
A fresh President and a slightly different course next year and
the situation will soon normalize.
The fact that allies disagree and criticize doesn't turn them into sudden unfriendlies despite some overheated rhetoric.

Get this straight- Israel is not a friend. Israel remains FRIENDLY because we pay for a good chunk of their military which is vital to their existance. As long as the pay checks keep coming, Israel will keep being friendly. If those checks were to ever stop, we'd just be another country to them.
As far as China closing the doors that's impossible, they are economically prosperous simply because we buy from them. We stop buying from them, a good chunk of their profit margin goes missing- and they're back to trying to run people over with tanks again.

No, the rest of the world hasn't liked us since the end of WWII when we bailed them all out of that mess. Now they are disgruntled at the prosperity we had following that war for such a long time. America doomed, not as long as we don't give up our liberty for a little safety. But, actually every empire, nation has all fallen: Athens, Sparta, Persia, Babylon, Egypt, Rome, Prussia, England, France, etc....
Once the wheels of individual liberty and freedom such as: LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT of Happiness are infringed by those govt officials who believe they know more than the founders we are all doomed. Bush didn't do anything like that at all. Bill Clinton actually did, with over use of executive order to recant the legislative branch and circumvent the checks and balances the founders had originally set up to keep a dictator from ever coming to power.

No but the US may end up being the only friend of Israel.As the UK derives 80% of its income from the US it would be stupid to try and block trade and there is no doubt the UK would cease trading with the EU before the US .

Having our trade shut down is not a major risk. We import much more than we export (look at the trade deficit) and countries need us to import and buy their junk. Without a doubt though, the low esteem the US is held is unprecedented and will have serious diplomatic consequences.

Geat Britain is America's closest ally. You can close your eyes and stop your ears, but the truth is still out there.
