The reality is that in the pursuit of full spectrum dominance, global "peace, security, and stability" has been consistently and deliberately undermined by the U.S. ever since the fall of the Soviet Union, a project that went into hyper drive after 9/11, with no sign of it slowing down anytime soon. The irony here is as inescapable as it is profound. We could well end up embroiled in a cataclysmic confrontation not of our own making -- yet as Fraser observed rightly, one in which we've allowed ourselves to become "complicit" -- not unlike that of the one in 1914 with the ancien regime. This time it will be right in our own backyard.
All up, our continued alliance with the Empire du jour under the present arrangement is a zero-sum game for us. Those countries with similar alliances and attachments -- whether in Asia or Europe -- would also do well to be similarly concerned.
