For an independent foreign observer, I think that the US is headed into a new era of paranoia, religious fervore, old-style military doctrine and down a spirale of violence, that might mean the end of the US's hegemony.
Don't get me wrong! I have NOTHING againt the US. I just think that the current administration is disasterous for that country, and that foreign oppinion of the US and its foreign policies are at an all-time-low.
The slow, continous and inevitable passage from democracies towards corporatist/fascist states is generating huge problems in all of Western Europe. The fact that the current administration is a republican one, only makes things worse.
NO, I am NOT a anti-WTO protester, nor am I a neo-fascist. I only relate what I see. I just hope I won't get flamed for this.
