2011: End of US Hyperpower & its War with Islamdom | Informed Comment:
Our war with Islam may have ended, at least from our side, but how many new Islamic enemies have we created over the last ten years? How much respect can we have left with Islamic people? The Afghan and Iraqi people can't feel much good toward us after ten years US led destruction. The Palestinians can't have much respect since we allow Israel to steal their land and basically treat them as prisoners in open-air prisons. Iran and Syria are our sworn enemies. Our relationship with Pakistan is on the rocks. The Egyptian people,... after our support Mubarak? Turkey is in a rocky relationship with Israel which also means "with the US". Our relationship with much of the middle east is shaky at best.
Our war with Islam may be over but I think it will be a long time before the Islamic world sees the US as anything but a bully.
