From then on US power grew, grew, grew, grew and grew.
Under Theodore Roosevelt, the US took over Puerto Rico and Cuba by kicking the Spanish out. It kicked out the established sovereign dynasty that rule Hawaii and took Hawaii over.
It once kicked the Spanish out of the Philippines and it became the sovereign power over it.
The scan of US military bases are as listed at the website below:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_military_bases
Ask this question?
What do these bases exist for?
Is there a significant number that ring China?
Does every American feel safe at night?
Think on this!
If there was an all out nuclear exchange, between US and China with no nuclear and thermo-nuclear devices left in their arsenals, on land, at sea, under the sea and in the sky over 12 hours period of exchange, after one month, how many Americans will have survived vs how many Chinese will have survived.
If each side wiped out 99.9% of the respective populations of the other side, what then is actually left over out of 350,000,000 Americans. and what is actually left over out of 1.4 billion Chinese.
Which will have enough man and woman power left over to start again, quickly and effectively?
Who can collect enough bows, arrows, spears and horses and find a fleet of ships and invade the other. And like Genghis Khan ride forth and finish the the survivors of the other side.
Where will all that
FIERCE HEGEMONY be?
Whilst the exchange takes place, do you honestly think the EU, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, India, Japan, Brazil, Argentina, Cuba, Tasmania, South Africa, India, Nepal, Pakistan want to take sides. They will all be biting their finger nails in utter excitement as the news come over. New York does not exist any more, Shanghai is a pile of dust, Chicago has vanished off the face of the map, Beijing is no more, Washington is dust and so the list goes on.
Is HEGEMONY, worth this price?
All this verbose sophistry about hegemony is for the wind. When it comes down to it, the usual thing is that the more verbose is the first to blink, because it is he who has the intellectual wit to know the consequences and the result of his sophistry.
PEOPLE WHO BOAST MOST
FLUNK WITH THEIR FUNK.
