"America is no mere international citizen. It is the dominant power in
the world, more dominant than any since Rome. Accordingly, America is
in a position to reshape norms, alter expectations, and create new
realities. How? By unapologetic and implacable demonstrations of will."
Charles Krauthammer - March, 2001 as quoted in The Best of TomDispatch

The old will to power trick, eh? That’s always turned out well.
Krauthammer and company must enjoy re-runs of Leni Riefenstahl’s most famous documentary.
