The Last Stop: The American Collapse That We Don’t Wish for…

Many were happy about the Soviet Union’s collapse and joined the Capitalist West. In spite of the joy about the collapse of the Communist army, time proved that the bipolarity emerging after the Second World War was somehow an element contributing to international relationships balance. Today the world sees that America’s unchecked unilateral power has exhausted the whole world, including America.

Despite all that, we still do not wish for America to collapse, despite its bloody and destructive evilness towards our nation. We believe that America’s collapse would cause world panic and might be the beginning of other collapses all around the globe. Based on the effects of the financial meltdown, the complete collapse of America would be more destructive and tragic.

Americans began to feel more than a year ago that the imperial dream had turned into a nightmare, and the breaking down of the Bush administration’s madness began in stages, prominent amongst which was the formation of the Baker-Hamilton commission and its 79 recommendations.

I beg your pardon to allow me to express my doubt and skepticism about all the American variables, changes, and the peak of its presidential election, which in some of its more inspiring aspects expressed a broad political coup, especially since it came from a state of panic and reactions based on mysterious givens.

It is not a secret that increasing the number of American troops and expanding the war in Afghanistan will be a disaster; it is the idea of President-elect Obama, and Secretary of Defense Gates (also Bush’s Secretary of Defense), is very keen and excited to execute this idea. And if Obama wants to “Break his stick in his first battle,” then his battle against Afghanistan will be the beginning of an American collapse that we don’t wish for. And that would be another story.
