This is a complex issue. I am interested in the psychology that drives the motivations of men and civilizations more than I am with the opposing or promoting of these civilizations. In the larger framework, it doesn't matter one jot, anyway! Civilizations will come and go just as they always have. And the American civilization will burn itself out in due time, too, like a candle that has no more wick.

It is my belief that the American empire will destroy itself, ironically, through its attempt to continue its existence. To put it another way: The only possible result of attempting to keep the windmill spinning is that you will wear out the windmill that much quicker!
