US alliances in the future?

It seems almost certain at this point that we lack the will to prevent Iran from developing nuclear arms, and once they do, they will eventually overcome their neighbors throughout the Midddle east. Them allied with Russia and China

Don't worry about Iran's nuclear capability.....Israel will take care of it. Don't you remember when France gave Iraq that nuclear reactor and Israel out of nowhere launched fighters and blew it up...they won't let it happen. When was that anyway, late 80's?

I think it's very probable that John's main inspiration when writing the Book of Revalations was a bottle of something.

Im as convinced it was nothing more than allegory to communicate current events of his day to his audience while giving plausible deniability for the Roman authroities.

Much if it really does easily translate to mean the current day (their time) rule of Rome in a way that would have been readily understandable to people in that day.

Japan, whom we are allowing to build a larger defensive force, the Aussies can alway be counted on, Brits, Israel, Canadians, and China or Russia depending on which sides with Iran. Lest we forget they have a live border between themselves. India looks promising too, if we ever get off the Paki's nuts.

Yeah

But they don't live in a bubble. They learn from failure just like we do, and have scattered the program in numerous underground facilities that seem to mandate ground forces to deal with effectively.

Its likely to come down to us, and that makes any action dependent on having a non pussy in office.

lol @ a communist country wanting to align themselves with us. Only to take our money bitches.

As more of the world hates us, and the standard of living in the world increases - people will less be jealous of us. You can already go to places like Malaysia and it's almost like the US now.

We are pretty much alone. Only time people want to deal with us, is if we can give them money (china), jobs (india) or military (isreal)

Only Japan and Canada

And Japan only because they're afraid of the Chinese (and hate them too)

BTE every super power always ended their reign being arrogant, decadent and hated by everybody (Rome, Spain, the British Empire,...)

You mean they were nice, loved, and moral at some point before they fell and while a superpower?

Abuse of power or authority may be the prime source and true essence of moral evil

and what's scary about Japan and Canada being the last US alliances in the futures?
