America

The Pentagon is planning a new generation of weapons, including huge hypersonic drones and bombs dropped from space, that will allow the US to strike its enemies at lightning speed from its own territory.



Jayzus have they gone farking mad???

What with their new tendency of pre-emptive strikes and "if you aint with me you are agin' me" attitude they may become the world's greatest threat!



And yet, the rest of the world must resist the temptation to suit up in armour and develop their own superweapons in answer. Rather, we should isolate America economically and make it self-destruct. If they carry on the way they have been lately, this is a given. The world would be a much safer place.



What I just wrote upsets me horribly. I have always loved the ideal of America. I always knew it was more of an ideal than reality but still, the country and it's people were for the most part striving to attain that ideal. It now seems as if it has been discarded, many Americans seem drunk on the power of the bully. True, being a bully will get you what you want... now. In the end though, that will be pretty hollow as you are shunned wherever you go.
