nicely, its going to take place. 737 bases exterior of the US, 6000 protection rigidity bases interior the US, those are thank you to costly, particularly with the infrastructure that is going with them. financial crumple is happening with Wall highway precise now. Bankers going bust. Inflation, starvation, gas hikes, blended ethnicity, race wars start up. In my estimates, the inhabitants will a million/2. Who ever has brains gets out of the country as speedy as they could now ! Europe, South usa of america and Asia all appear as if a solid theory. that does no longer mean the the remainder of the international wont go through. all of us will for around a decade or so on a similar time as the airborne dirt and mud settles. Thats what happens once you circulate Afghanistan. there is an previous saying by using the main suitable poet and psychological in British history, Rudyard Kipling. "Afghanistan is the place large powers circulate to die". Im afraid its authentic, British empire, Soviet empire, Alexander the 'large' became into 'ungreated' here, chinese language empire, Persian empire, and a large style of others all died there. Its a certainty of history that in case you invade Afghanistan, your empire is possibly going to be buried there. Thats in basic terms how that is Im afraid.

About the same I think about the words : " LONG LIVE THE ROMAN EMPIRE ".
The only guarantee in life besides "death and taxes" is CHANGE.ALL empires in history have risen and fallen period and I suspect the US Empire has reached it's apex and is on it's way to extinction as all others.
I do have concern for Americans or at least their children and/or their childrens children in that the old expression "YOU LIVE BY THE SWORD, YOU DIE BY THE SWORD " or this other one , "WHAT GOES AROUND,COMES AROUND " may very well be the future of Americans as there are just so many out there around the world who are patiently waiting for THEIR TURN AT BAT to address some of these past atrocities.

Well, we will not have a democracy if we have an empire. We have to make a choice just like the Brits did. I would rather choose democracy over empire. So I pretty much can't stand the sound of "American Empire". We need to downsize our military, get out of Iraq and the mid-east and find new technologies for energy rather than becoming more dependent on oil. If we don't we're all in major trouble in so many ways because of the consequences this will incur.

Actually I am little tired today and you?
Didn't the Romans have an empire and then it collapsed? Well then you should understand that an American Empire won't work.

Disgusting because America is a democratic country and not an empire! America may have influence in many parts of the world but apparently not to colonize them!

I feel that it's stupid. America never has been, and never will be an Empire.

Frightened and angry.
What's next, 'America Uber Alles'?

Sounds like a typical liberal rant.
