Some strange alliances are forming after the Iraq War.
First came Putin's announcement of a new initiative to bring together China, India, Russia and Brazil in what is currently being billed as an economic alliance.That alone would be a formidable alliance encompassing almost 50% of the population of the world.It will also include enormous natural resources and brainpower.

Second, Israel and India are feverishly forming an economic and military alliance that will include transfer of missile and radar technology,weapons and trade.

Third, Iran and China have formed a long term trade agreement that will involve the sale of oil and natural gas from Iran to China.

I don't know what to make of all these activities except to say they look unusual and may be intended to protct the countries involved from meeting the fate of Iraq.

2. In short
*'s belligerence, unilateralism, and unmitigated hubris, will eventually cause the entire world to join together and rise up against us.

Welcome to the Banana Republic of America. . . aka the United Serfs of America.

We're so totally screwed under this idiot.

4. Sooner or later
it is going to get to a point when we've pissed off every other nation on the planet, they will stop doing business with the US and we will be forced to rely on our domestic manufacturing base to survive. It will open the eyes of many in this country to the folly of years of out-sourcing. Because when that time comes we will effectively be at war with the rest of the world.
