The World is Uniting Against the Bush Imperium
Paul Craig Roberts at Counterpunch - if the Busheviks drop nukes on Iran, not only will I declare them non-persons, Mr. Roberts believes that America will become an enemy to the rest of the civilized world. And rightly so. [grabbe]
Neoconservatives think the US is a superpower because of its military weapons and nuclear missiles. However, as the Iraqi resistance has demonstrated, America's superior military firepower is not enough to prevail in fourth generation warfare. The Bush regime has reached this conclusion itself, which is why it increasing speaks of attacking Iran with nuclear weapons.
The US is the only country to have used nuclear weapons against an opponent. If six decades after nuking Japan the US again resorts to the use of nuclear weapons, it will establish itself as a pariah, war criminal state under the control of insane people. Any sympathy that might still exist for the US would immediately disappear, and the world would unite against America.
A country against which the world is united is not a superpower.
